But why not have nerd (scientific) time as just the number of seconds since
a base time with no year divisions.
Then have civil time as just markers on nerd time.  Quote scientific time as
seconds, Ms, Gs, Ts...  Lets really go whole hog SI.

That exists, more or less. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unix_time
