Migrations with Time Field

How does one migrate time data into Time Field range? For instance, given the following fieldname of (field_start_end_time), this attempts to follow Time Field's subfield schema in a simple migration, but fails:

...
  field_start_end_time/from:
    plugin: format_date
    source: startDate (used for this example only)
    from_format: 'Y-m-d\TH:i:s\Z'
    to_format: 'h:i a'
    from_timezone: 'America/New_York'
    to_timezone: 'America/New_York'

  field_start_end_time/to:
    plugin: format_date
    source: endDate (used for this example only)
    from_format: 'Y-m-d\TH:i:s\Z'
    to_format: 'h:i a'
    from_timezone: 'America/New_York'
    to_timezone: 'America/New_York'

    Just to add to this, for me, I was just migrating into a simple time field, not a time range, from an external MySQL table via CSV.

    So I was able to output the time field in my SELECT query using MySQL's TIME_TO_SEC() function (which outputs an integer between 0 and 86399, representing the seconds from midnight), and then my migration YAML just needed to be:

    ...
    source:
    ...
      fields:
        - name: time
        - label: 'Time'
    ...
    process:
      field_time/value: time
    ...

    Just an fyi, I used the following to move from the timefield module to time_field.

    ...
    source:
      plugin: d7_node_complete
      node_type: page
    ...
    process:
      field_hours_monday:
        -
          plugin: sub_process
          source: field_hours_monday
          process:
            from: value
            to: value2
    ...
