Why even have a clock, eh? You are only ONE CLICK AWAY from a calendar with the clock...
The point of all this is that it's a core functionality that many people find useful.
Many people are so busy that they forget that they even have multiple appointments, or something coming up tomorrow... they don't even think to check the full calendar. Hence, this is why it's nice for the next several appointments to show on the Today screen.
It's that simple.

I understand that. People want it on the screen. That's fine... but missing appointments over it is laughable.
Let's take your example. Say the clock wasn't on the Today screen, and I had to tap the screen once to see it. I'm not going to start acting completely oblivious to time now.
"Sir, could I bother you for the time please?"
"No."
Or I've got a date with two models at 8.... Now I'm just gonna fuess the time, instead of tapping the screen once. "I can tell it's 5:38 by the color of the sky".
Makes zero sense.
