Michael, there are a few details you overlook, and rather than
repeat myself, I'll point you at an article I wrote for Queue and
Communications of The ACM, trying to lay out the bits:

Thanks for your ref. I am aware of the shortcomings of the present
scheme and am not particularly pro leap second. It seems to me that the
right questions are not being addressed and certainly the proposition
for change as expressed and to be voted on in 2012 is premature. The US
are just wanting leap seconds abolished without proposing alternative
schemes covering all the requirements of time signal users. Once they
have been defined , recommendations can be considered. Till then , fix
the bugs.
