Tell that to my glasses. At any sort of distance where this could be an advantage, the clock is just going to be a blur anyway.
Not to mention, how often are you in a situation where you want to know what time it is, but the nearest clock is far enough away that it being analogue becomes an actual advantage?

My last 7+ exams were all done on a computer. That clock was a lot closer than any that happen to be on a wall.

Sure, but why would I look down, when there is a clock in every direction I look at. I wristwatch would also be analog again.

I have no clue how your university does prevent cheating, but ok. Here any kind of network-connected(/connectable) device is forbidden. And then there is math, where the only thing you are allowed to have is a pen and the formulary (and maybe a ruler).

This does not reflect my life. Clocks are out there, but not to the point of there being one a just turn of the head away no matter where I am. My phone is the closest device with an accurate sense of time the vast majority of the time.

Smart watches exist. Digital wrist watches also exist, but seem to have gone out of fashion.

By not having shit exams. Most (all?) of mine were open-book. I didn't take maths in uni, but they're also done digitally, although I don't think they're open-book. There you probably only get the formulary.
Interesting, I also have glasses and am short-sighted, but for me light-emitting objects blur much faster than solid objects. It depends very much on the light type, frequency and brightness, but most LEDs, which most digital clocks use, tend to have an overgleaming effect, which makes them unreadable due to being a block of light.

All the time? Being in a train station, sitting in a (class)room (during exam), in the kitchen, walking on the street, etc.
