The name "Coordinated Universal Time" and initialism "UTC" are used
in the IAU 1967 resolutions, referring to the rubber-seconds system.
And that resolution explicitly refers to the content of the new CCIR
Recommendation 374-1 which uses the phrase "Universal Time UT2" and
does not use the term "UTC".
Today's animated discussions about unclear terminology and lack of
congruence between agencies are nothing new.
No. And its frustrating. It calls for an effort to consolidate,
centralize, and clarify the specifications.
