It is not dependent on time. You'd like a protocol to be self sufficient if
at all possible.

Moving the vulnerability of one protocol to another is not highly desirable
in general.


The interesting failure mode is, of course, what happens when you're not
in time sync, so the routing protocol falls over - and due to the lack of
routing table entries, you become unable to reach your timesource.
