In what way is the requirement "|DUT| <= 0.9s" not "constraining the
behaviour of our descendants 600 years hence"?
While I understand your argument about the name UTC:
* *EVERY* approach requires constraining the behaviour of our descendants
600 years hence, just in different ways;
* "Universal" Time is a *really* stupid name for a time scale based on
the variable rotations of one small piece of rock.
