TAI is accurate. UTC is fudged. The Earth is not a clock. BTW GPS
time ignores leap seconds. It's what scientists most often use for
precise timing.
Not all of them. Many use UTC. UTC is readily available via many
radio transmitters around the world. TAI not so much. And
synchronizing via the internet is not good when you need microsecond
accuracy; it is with radio stations.
Really?
