I just noticed that: pd.Timedelta(0.123456789, 'microseconds') returns 0 days 00:00:00.000000123.

So it's not the unit that determines the rounding, but the lowest timedelta resolution which is currently 1ns.
I'd suggest:
"If value is a float, the decimal parts of the value that require a precision higher than a nanosecond will be ignored."
(This could be added to value's description instead.)
