Real talk, is there some benefit to an analog clock that would prevent them from all being replaced by digital ones? Being able to know exactly the time in a moment's glance seems better to me.

They're certainly not better looking than a digital one, considering most of the ones used in schools are just the cheapest and most basic version they can get.

Power requirements maybe? Longevity?

Can't do that with a digital display, can you?

It literally says on the image you sent how to do it with a digital display (besides, it's pretty reasonable)

Not if you can't imagine analogue clock.

Their method is "imagine a clock face showing that hour" how are you going to do that if you don't know how analogue clocks work?
