Our calendar system is designed to match the rotation of the planet around it's own axis and around the sun. If a year was a few seconds longer or shorter, it would build up for years and it would be pretty offset by now, and in a few hundred thousand years time it would be completly offset unless we redesigned it to match a year with accuracy down to a second.
