The French actually tried it, here’s the Wikipedia article.
A more reasonable thing to do is something like Swatch Internet Time, you get 1000 “.beats” in a day with no time zones. Beyond a day it might not be too helpful to keep decimal, there will be 365+fraction days a year no matter how you measure it.
I know what you’re getting at 😆
