The two clocks I reference the most - my wrist watch, and my mobile phone - don't really benefit from the alleged advantage of having mains power cycling every 0.0167 seconds.
Perhaps you could expound further on this hypothesis?
I'd always assumed people who spent 3+ years studying electrical engineering had solved this problem. Certainly in Australia (~240V / 50Hz) we don't seem to have a problem with all our clocks being 20% wrong all the time.
