Nah, that doesn't work either, since now you have 2 of those per day.  To be
truly metric, you have to use milli-years, which are 8.7696 "old" hours
long; and micro-years (31.57056 old seconds).

Yes, that means the sun comes up at a different time every day, but it does
that anyway.  Can't "simplify" things without breaking a few eggs.
