The hertz is not dimensionally identified as 1/T, despite the fact that this has been voted in 1995 by the clueless delegates to the CGPM.

The hertz is a name for cycle per second and the physical quantity that is measured in hertz is plane angle per time a.k.a. phase angle per time, not reciprocal time.
