Stopwatch Timing, Explained

How ClockMatrix keeps millisecond timing drift-free — and the rules behind splits, time zones and leap years.

The stopwatch never counts up by adding a fixed interval. It records the absolute epoch when you press Start and derives elapsed time as `elapsed = Date.now() - startedAt + accumulatedMs` on every animation frame. Because each frame recomputes from a single clock sample, rounding and frame-rate jitter never accumulate into drift.
