What is the reason/benefit for a company to require you to use a full hour of PTO instead of .5 hours if that’s all you need?

I can’t understand this, and I’m so frustrated with it at work. If I need to leave a half hour early for an appt, apparently they would rather I stop working an extra half hour early, leave and have a half hour to kill before my appt. If it could make sense in my head maybe the aggravation can stop. Thanks.

They might be trying to push you to use it for full vacation days, not hundreds of random errands.

Or maybe there is a complexity in the time charging process that they want to avoid. If you took a bunch of fifteen minute breaks all week, does that get manually entered or approved by anyone in your system? “Yeah X was out friday morning. Approved” vs “shit i dont remember all these random breaks X took. I didnt write any of this down”
