It would cuz there's no better alternative. But analog clocks do have an alternative ........ Digital clocks

who are too lazy or too stupid

They do know how to read the clock (digital ones :) ) Again, it doesn't make them idiots or lazy for not learning something they don't really need to learn

Intelligence is an ability to obtain knowledge and skills. If someone lacks both, it is a strong indication of them not having enough intelligence to obtain them.

What makes you think they don't have the ability to learn how to read analog clocks just because they don't? You might not know how ride a horse, but that doesn't mean you can't learn how to. Are you an idiot for not learning how to?

Not the one widely used, but they do know how to use the clock. And they're not really that much more used than digital clocks. Therefore, it doesn't matter

It's not really widely used anymore.

Alphabets can't be replaced by something easier and more convenient. But clocks can be

Except, they do know how to use a clock. Just not your favorite clock

What makes people who didn't learn to read analog clocks idiots? If you have a thing about analog clocks, just keep it to yourself.

it may be because you fit the category

Or maybe because it's just stupid af to judge people's intelligence based on an unrelated life skill.

unable or too lazy to understand the clock,

They can understand the clock? Just not the analog clock. Why should they anyways? It's not like that's the only way to tell time and since reading analog clocks is an unrelated skill why do u think they're not fit to write exams? It has nothing to do with IQ, it's just that analog clocks aren't as common as they used to be. Hence, they're less used to them than previous generations. They probably can learn to read them if they wanted to, but they just don't bother, since they don't really need it these days

If I was visiting an alien world, there's no way I'm visiting the scientists. What are the chances the first thing they do won't be ripping open my stomach?
