No one would really care if it was 10,204 km along an imaginary line from the pole to the equator, would they? But then newtons would be the same as hectograms

Maybe, but gravity acceleration varies widely at different parts of the planet. It might be easier to find where it is 10 m/s2 and define that as the reference.
