So, wait. In order to use Python for any proper UTC processing you have to 
configure your PC to run on TAI? That sounds, sort of inconvenient if you're 
trying to do anything with precise time. It's the same as Excel.

Still, I bet more astronomers use Python than Excel to point telescopes. How do 
you handle the lack of leap second support in Python?
