Yes, I agree. The Braille Lite that I used back in the day had a timer. If something that, well I don't know the word for it, can have features such as a timer, calculate current line, day number of the year, search across files, and other things, I see no reason that the bn cannot. Could it be that the bn is too complex to perform these simple tasks easily?

We have a stopwatch, so just make it go the other way!
