What do you really mean by "Synchronized ?"

The civil (and therefore human) time at any spot on the planet, is
offset up to several hours from, and steps up to one hour, due to
DST, relative to any kind of physically based solar time you might
care to name.

You claim seems to be that this "synchronization" has to be nailed
at the sub-second level ?

Again, I have yet to see any sort of data backing up this tacit
claim of yours ?

Never attribute to malice what can adequately be explained by incompetence.
