You can't write some of them as a single cron schedule.

For example - if your frequency is "every 15 minutes", you can't run it from something :00 till something else :59. Your latest occurrence would be :45, not :59.

Amd, since you can only specify how each datetime part changes on it's own, you can't do "every 15 minutes from something :00 up to and including something else :00". If you specify both ranges/generators or whatever you call them for hours and for minutes they will both get expanded separately.

*/15 7-9

(To only focus on minutes and hours, forget the other parts of cron spec)

will generate times from 7:00 up to 9:45. There is no way to include just 10:00 without 10:15, 10:30 and 10:45.

You'd neeed a separate schedule just for 10:00.
