> Have clocks at home which automatically sync the clock.
I'd say not. Your computer has a clock in it, yes, but it's unlikely to be your main method of telling time. Same for any smart devices you have. There's several analog wall clocks and several digital alarm clocks with battery backups in my house; none of these sync the time. In comparison, there's only 4 rooms with computers in them, and these are usually off or on screensaver. The time on a computer is small and only shown in the status/menu bar, making it hardly convenient to check from the doorway. Smart speakers only respond to their owners, and require stopping what you're doing to hear a response.
The average user on HN is far more likely to have such devices than the average person in general; most of my friends have at most one such devices in either their living room or bedroom, and that's it. Half the people I work with wear and use a wristwatch at work (_not_ a smartwatch).
