3.) Does it even make sense for the desktop clock to only show the date or just the time?
The question of whether it makes sense for the desktop clock to only show the date or just the time depends on the individual needs and preferences of the user as well as the usage situation.
Here are some considerations:
Functionality:

User Preferences:
Some users prefer to only see the time as they may not always need the date. Others find it useful to keep track of the date as well, especially if they need to keep track of work or personal appointments.
Desktop space: Depending on how full your desktop is with icons, files, and applications, it may be difficult to find enough space for a long time and date display. In such cases it may make sense to switch between both pieces of information.
Customizability: Many desktop clocks offer the ability to customize them. You can often choose to show just the time, just the date, or both. This allows users to customize the display to their liking.
Depending on the situation: Your preferences may also depend on the current activity. If you e.g. For example, if you're working on a project and don't need the date, you might just want to show the time. However, when planning events, the date may be more important.
Info:

4.) More thoughts on normal watches and this feature!
This typically requires a special type of watch that can change its display mode when clicked in a certain way. Such watches are now known as "smartwatches" and usually feature a touchscreen display or physical buttons to switch between different display modes.
It is important to note that classic analog clocks usually do not have such features and that you would need a special clock with advanced digital functions to realize this behavior.
If you have such a smartwatch or watch with advanced functions, you can usually check the settings or the user manual to find out how to control the display mode you want. The exact steps may vary from model to model.
