Description
`Clock.t` stores the elapsed time of the clock.
Due to the way we expose the clock in builtins, `clock` is a module. We could convert it to a `Clock` instance, in which case `clock.t` would be a way of accessing the time.
(We should explain in documentation that `t` is the commonly used mathematical variable for time, hence the short name.)

Research direction
Start by locating the Clock implementation and the builtins code that currently exposes clock as a module. Check how Clock.t stores elapsed time and how builtins are tested, then make the exposure provide direct access to the Clock instance and document why t is used for time.
