Looking for examples of "fake clocks". Ones I have in mind:
1. Wait times in uber/lyft
2. Reading time estimates in Medium
3. Download countdowns or other sort of computer processing countdown
Any others?

Pilots, “we’ve begun our initial decent and should be on the ground in 25 minutes.”

This feels more in the genuine uncertain estimate category, like pregnancy duration, rather than a fake time per se.
Aren’t many download countdowns the same?

This is similar to pregnancy in the sense unless anormal conditions the landing time is already v well known . Pilots just approximate the nr. But the whole flight is planned out and known to be X. In fact airlines’ schedule time is always longer than flown to allow for delays
