That's just not the point of this article.
Basically, my takeaway from this is: if you /can/ avoid the complexity, by dealing with absolute relative timings (if something takes 2 seconds, then it takes 2 seconds, even if one of them is a leap-second), then you /should/.
And the best way to do this is using the techniques mentioned in the article
