I'm strongly against silently throwing away data and calling it even. If we want compatibility with strptime then it should be a separate flag like silent_truncate_milliseconds=True.
On another matter: does the latest proposed code pass the tests in my ISO8601 implementation that I mentioned 2013 (! time flies)?
