So more precise than all of the clocks in the world once you exclude "the most precise clocks in the world"? Yes, MC#2 is a hydrogen maser clock. But you fail

Yes, MC#2 is a hydrogen maser clock. But you failed to mention that it is driven by an ensemble of 41 clocks, 4 rubidium fountains, 19 hydrogen masers, and 18 5071 cesiums.
