Basically it's an "oh no, anyways" thing. Makes programming easier since we won't be having them divert from the atomic clock. The largest effect is that in a century we might deviate a whole minute. Eventually, in a few thousand years it'll be a problem when it's off by an hour or so, but that's a future issue.
