It's definetrly because they don't want to teach this thing that takes like 10 minutes to explain and not because recalibrating every daylight savings hour one by one is a hassle.
When I was a student, my school had analog clocks that were synced via some electric system.

No one's asking the real question... Is that background image AI?

Being older (mid fifties) I was taught the analogue clock. My eyes no longer work so well for reading, and an analogue clock face allows you to see the hands and know the time without having to work out where I've left my glasses. On my phone's sleep screen I'm using large high contrast digits so I guess I'm using both styles. Also much easier to visualise time deltas on a clock face.
