[qswkpfzs] 24/n clock

The ambiguity of the standard 12-hour clock is resolved by knowing (through one's internal sense of time) which of the two blocks, a.m. or p.m., one is in.

A circle divided into 12 is a lot easier to read the correct angle of the hour hand than 24.

Can this idea be taken further?  8 hour clock aligns with work shifts, and has possibilities of expressing the hour in binary.  6 hour?
