That old definition has a very serious disadvantage:

as proponent of the so called 'Growing Earth theory', I would expect the 
day to become longer over long periods of time.

Also the solar year would get longer and we had less days per year in 
ancient times.


As far as I know the ancient egyptians had only 360 days per year, which 
were also shorter than ours today.

That's why a different definition, which is not based upon planet Earth 
would be a good idea.

But the question remains, whether or not other frequencies were effected 
by the same mechanism, which makes the Earth grow, too.

The question is, if matter could 'age' or get 'transmutated' over time 
or whether the emissions of a certain element are influenced by gravity 
or the actual size of the Earth.

This is very hard to measure, because we would need something else, 
which is known to be stable over time and independent from time itself, 
thus provide countable events at an absolute and stable rate.

But the existance of any such phenomenon is hard to prove, because we 
can't prove, that such a time piece measures 'absolute time'.
