    Striking bells for particular schedules had poor social scalability: the more people with different schedules in a city, the greater the cacophony. Striking the time greatly increased the temporal coordination in a city: socially scalable schedules. http://www.fon.hum.uva.nl/rob/Courses/InformationInSpeech/CDROM/Literature/LOTwinterschool2006/szabo.best.vwh.net/synch.html …

        "Public mechanical clocks...striking each hour...allowed for a separation of duties between time-keeping and the planning or scheduling of specific events. This 'level of indirection' allowed for an explosion of diversity in the daily schedule..." http://www.fon.hum.uva.nl/rob/Courses/InformationInSpeech/CDROM/Literature/LOTwinterschool2006/szabo.best.vwh.net/synch.html …

        vs. reflected emission (e.g. reflected local sun/star light off of artificial surfaces such as solar energy collectors). All of these would be very likely to look very artificial, and quite stand out from the natural galactic phenomena.

        I don't know what you are talking about, mechanical clocks will never scale. Have you seen how complicated they are to make?

        They should have stuck to water clocks -- more ticks per pound of iron.

        That makes sense. Iron is an incredibly valuable resource, and shouldn't be wasted on such trifling curiosities.

        I'd say its like using a common cryptocurrency instead of trying to keep track of a cacophony of service tokens.
