Just out of curiosity, what does a circular 24-hour clock look like? Midnight at the top, and noon at the bottom, where 6 o'clock would normally be?
The benefit is in avoiding the confusion that comes from mapping a new concept (a 24-hour clock) onto a very familiar, almost instinctual one (a 12-hour clock).
