Addresses UK 322, US 96

Description

Not all systems can provide a monotonic clock. How are they expected to treat a _for function?

Suggestion

Add at least a note explaining the intent for systems that do not support a monotonic clock.

Notes

Create an issue, together with UK 96. Note that the specification as is already allows a non-monotonic clock due to the word “should” rather than “shall”. If this wording is kept, a footnote should be added to make the meaning clear.
