Also not an expert but I imagine if that were the case, it would have applications in measuring distance between galaxies and other areas of enormous distance.
For example, the distance to the nearest galaxy: "The team refined the uncertainty in the distance to the LMC down to 2.2 percent." [1]
This kind of precision could be used for example to measure the radius of elementary particles (wild guess, I'm not even sure that makes sense given what we know about the quantum world)

Clock accuracy pertains directly to such imagining. I, um, "imagine" there is relevance to this work.
