It's not just about telling time though. It's about representing things in a different way. Correlating one thing to another, and making someone think until the representation automatically becomes the output. You are forced to see things in a different way, which is what learnding is all about.

Learning how a sundial works would teach them more than leaning how an analog clock works, in that regard.
