This somehow doesn't make sense. Given you have a clock that generates
UTC(k). How can you not also generate TAI(k) at the same time?
(modulo leap seconds of course)
>From a technical point of view, if I had to run a clock that generates
UTC(k), i would let it run as TAI(k) and apply an offset to derive
UTC(k) from it. And i would have thought that this is the way how the
UTC(k) references are generated. Or am i missing something important?
