That really is more logical. (Except that the initial element generally goes in the top slot of the clock. Note that 12 is the first hour both of AM and of PM.)
UTC has leap seconds. We can do better. PTP/TAI for lyfe.
A perfectly logical clock would use a radio broadcast to count off seconds since a predefined epoch. Put a few of them way up high, so more people can see it, and make them so astonishingly precise that you could tell where you are just by listening.

A strictly logical clock for a 24-hour day would have 0 at the top with 1 on the right and 23 on the left. And it would be only ever set to UTC.

A strictly logical 24 hour clock would just display the digits tbh.
In binary
I’m not sure I’d argue binary is more or less “logical”. A number is a number.
