How things descended to a level where men propose that the pace of a
clock keeps in sync with axial rotation through 360 degrees in 23
hours 56 minutes 04 seconds is quite a story -

http://hypertextbook.com/facts/1999/JennyChen.shtml

Normally when things get this bad there are some genuine people who
realise why using a calendar system based on a 1461 day cycle broken
into 3 years of 365 days and 1 year of 366 days is a freakisk way to
explain the motions of the Earth and especially axial rotation.

The idea that the pace of a clock keeping in sync with axial rotation
at precisely 4 minutes for each degree of rotation making precisely 24
hours through 360 degrees is so fundamental to human understanding of
the daily cycle that only the most diseased would oppose it.The fact
is that in all the years here I have yet to see one intelligent
person,one person who can rise about the diseased minds to see how the
correlation between clocks and axial rotation does not involve
celestial sphere geometry or the calendar system.

I can maintain this because I have the entire noble astronomical
discipline behinbd my words,you have nothing but late 17th century
maneuvering with false precepts.
