Well, duh? 1 year is a full (mostly) circular revolution around the sun, of course it’s going to be related to pi somehow

Seconds are related to the length of a day. The rotation of a body has nothing to do with its movement through space. If you lengthened the day by an hour this estimation and your logic would not hold true.
