If I read it right you have reinvented Markus Kuhn's UTS as seen in
http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mgk25/uts.txt
http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mgk25/time/leap/
http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mgk25/time/leap/utc-torino-slides.pdf
That's my reading too, except that Markus proposed batches of
about 1000 UTS seconds either approximately 1.001 or 0.999 SI
seconds long which seems like a better idea to me.
Also, Markus wasn't proposing UTS as a civil timescale but just
for use within computer systems, etc.
