> But for some applications, accuracy is less important than precision. Precision has to do not with delineating the perfect second but rather with creating extremely regular ticks, or oscillations.

I don’t follow here, doesn’t accuracy follow if you have a precise oscillator? What is the difference between an accurate or a precise clock?
