Rob, this will always be true, won't it? Whether you
have 100 ms time step adjustments, or 100 x e-10
rate adjustments, leap seconds, or leap hours it
seems to me there has been and will always be an
honest attempt to "coordinate" the two scales.

The question, in your assertion, is what constitutes
"useful" and what magnitude is the "approximation".
