It is but the number of people who can understand it's value is inversely proportional to the interest of the work. I had to setup a TAI server for a trading company I worked in because no other time mechanism could record the trades happening reliably without duplicates. I would have been interested in making it a universal service. It would take me an hour long presentation to explain to other programmers with a physics background why this was absolutely essential. I can't imagine ever convincing a suit as to why they should pay for it.
