Actually some platforms(mostly embedded systems like TV/STB) doesn't have battery powered reliable clock source. Wall Clock time is obtained via time sources like NTP(it may have some latency). So I feel use currentTime() only on the places which really needs wall clock time(like jsDateTime()), remaining places monotonicallyIncreasingTime() is good.
