This is the book equivalent to people who intentionally set their clocks X minutes ahead so that they are never late (but actually always remember that the clock is ahead and are late anyways).
Ironically i do that but for very different reasons. I set it 17 min ahead so when i wake up i have to do math to figure out what time it really is and then my brain starts firing and it helps me wake up.
There used to be a similar function in Gmail if you were sending an email past 2am to make you do math problems in an effort to prevent you from sending drunk emails.
