The entire point of leap seconds is to make sure that our system of time keeping stays tied to the natural world. The same is true of leap years and time zones, but leap seconds are very direct in that they are introduced as way to always keep our time keeping system within one second of the planet's rotation, no matter how irregular the latter is. |
