Yeah, but so will the ordinal date calendar with no months, and the shorter seconds but longer minutes. I don't think the discomfort is an argument that's entirely valid here, the transition of course shouldn't be abrupt but the end goal should be the ideal version, that we should aim for and not the midway steps.
