No system can avoid arbitrary bullshit because the earth doesn't go around the sun in an amount of time that's an exact multiple of the time it takes to rotate.
Sounds like why fuck with it then. There's a cost to converting that will be paid only to replace one set of arbitrary bullshit with another set of arbitrary bullshit. You can say you prefer one bullshit to another and no one can dispute you on that, but in the end it's just one set of bullshit vs another and I'm already committed to the current one.
It's probably too difficult to implement now because of computers being entrenched in the existing system. If we were going to implement it, it would have been 100 years ago.
