Why not? Clocks are that accurate now, so if we're going to pretend that they're related to the real world they have to be adjusted occasionally. A second every couple of years is probably the best compromise between a fraction of a second every year and letting it build up to a minute or so over a century.

Personally, I have radio controlled clocks in two rooms, get my PC's time from atomic clocks, and don't worry about resetting my watch if it's right to ten seconsd or so.
