Isn't that precisely the same?
Doesn't even have to be the International Date line, any two timezones work.

Yes, it's the same, the IDL just makes it easier for it to work, as otherwise the babies have to be born on either side of midnight while crossing the time zone line. With the IDL the birth time could be almost any time of day except for crossing over midnight and the joke would work.
