See, now I’m stumped and feel like a chump. Can’t find it written down anywhere. But I shall continue to search...and perhaps temporarily redefine my memory of the ‘ATC minute’ to match that of the man on the streets’.
Quite so, In the absence of anyone quoting a definitive reference, I cannot help feeling that it is just an illogical "custom and practice". We are considering a clock indication which registers
elapsed time - to my mind, the seconds should be ignored if the requirement is to record only (hour and) minutes. If your age is 37 years and seven months, you would not say that you were 38.
