Can you explain how a 10 minute offset would affect you in any way?
For 99% of the world today, high noon =/= 12:00:00. Nothing breaks because of this. The world continues to run.

I was told the sun would show up on the calendar in the floor at noon. As noon approached, I saw nothing. Then I figured it probably needed to be solar noon, so had to look that up and wait around until that time. Today, that will be 12:20pm.
Nothing would have broken had I missed this, and nothing of critical importance is running on a solar clock (I don’t think), but it still led to a discrepancy in what was expected and where I needed to be when, based on drift from solar noon.
