Currently time step and duration is positive for reverse time. We can negate both to move forward, but this needs checking and should probably use a straightforward convention where negative is reverse ...

because otherwise we could simply negate the time step in the case that the end_date is before the start_date?

I think that's simpler ... (just declare that's what's happening, and disallow a negative time step)
