If we enhance the function such that Excel can't calculate it anyway,
why not add fractional workdays if those fractions are given in a new
optional parameter array? This functions is used to calculate a deadline
or similar dates, so including/excluding fractional days seems a valid
approach to me. But as said previously, maybe just overkill.
