Here's the part you cut out: "...which moves further ahead of TT each time a leap second is introduced." Okay. I'm not sure why that's significant, but how does that explain how you can end up with nuclear decay being variable in one time reference but constant in the other when the time references are not variable with respect to each other?

"Okay.

Because TT, TAI and the SI second are all defined in terms of atomic time. They are not variable with respect to each other but are fixed 'by definition'.
That was the point of editor-surveyor's post #27.
