Comment 3 for bug 508547

Again, I realize what I am talking about isn't particularly important in the grand scheme of things, which is probably why my suggestion elicited such a terse response (viz: "Say it with me: feature bloat!") from mr Robert Dyer.

However, as made clear by Daniel Schierbeck's comment, what I am suggesting isn't really a new feature. I am merely pointing out that dials divided into 24 hours are in fact a very uncommon way of displaying time even in countries using the 24 hour clock system, and that it therefore would make a lot of sense sense to simply let the analogue clock dial remain unaffected when the user selects the option "24-hour clock". As far as I can tell this wouldn't only be more in line with the norm as well as drastically increase the readability of the clock dial, the removal of the patently abnormal 24-hour dials would actually be a simplification rather than "feature bloat".
