A reality that most of these types of blog dont mention is that you may well not have any applicable data. E.g. users registered before 2000. Or any dates at all that care about second precision.

Humans are also "wrong" but happy with that, celebrating birthdays indepenent of timezones. Some celebrate birthdays independente of the actual date birth occured like the Queen or Jesus or anyone born on the 29th of feb.

Far more likely your clock goes backwards because you fuck up your ntp config than any other reason.
