Oh?
I need an approximation of civil time to somewhere between 30s (when
catching a local train or watching a television programme [1]) and 5
minutes (when attending an internal meeting).
I have no requirement for any approximation to UT at all. Not even for
lighting-up time; I put my car headlights on when it starts to look dark or
when I see the sun near the horizon.
I suspect the vast majority of people are like me.
[1] But often I'll let the DVR record it automatically, then watch it a
while later when I can skip through the adverts and/or boring bits.
