The ESP cpu that's used for IOT has something like that as I remember; a low power sleep that can be woken from a separate timer going off.

So technically I'd guess it could be done to have the time displayed on the sleep screen. But it may require different or more chips which could raise the costs beyond profitable levels.

And yes, I'm flip flopping / talking out of both sides of my mouth.
No problem. I was curious since Quoth said "absolutely".
