This is pretty much me,too. I glance at the clock when I am on the home screen, and find it helpful, sufficiently so to warrant changing my locale to see the "real" time, 24hr time.

For me, Kobo has struck a near-perfect balance of accessibility and unobtrusiveness. That aside, I can more easily understand the concerns of those who want to see it constantly than those who want it gone completely, since its presence is so relatively fleeting.
