The text for `line does specify that resetall has no effect on it.
Addition of text in the `resetall directive would be reflective,
and not a new feature.

There is no 'default' value for timescale that all simulators will
agree upon. How about we flip a coin or draw straws for a default?
Choices include

A. 1ns/1ns
B. 1s/1s
C. 10ns/10ns
D. 100ps/100ps

How about we vote on a number - the value associated with the number
will not be shown until all votes are in - that way noone can
be held accountable for voting for the 'wrong' default...

I'll pick #3...
