The point is that our "standard" second changes

our average velocity as a constant without any
evidence whatsoever to support that definition.
That's no different from defining our average
position as the center of the universe.
Since there is no such thing as an absolute frame of reference or
absolute velocity, your point is meaningless.
Time is defined with a velocity of zero relative to the Earth, not
Mars, the Crab Nebula, nor the center of the universe.
The standard is a measurement standard, not some revelation into the
meaning of life and everything.
