You might not even realize the harm leapseconds have caused you. E.g. almost certainly have knocked your cell service out (or rather prophylactic reboots across leap seconds have)-- and that's without having experienced a negative leapsecond.
Agreed on DST too, both are cases of a small harm done at a such a massive scale that the cumulative damage is significant.
