One more time. DNA replication relies only on particular structures and enzimes to transform these. There is no notion of time whatsoever. Only availability of structural elements, and concentration. Everything is decoupled and feedback loops based.

And sequences of actions are maintained by pipelining of physical molecular structures - each enzime recognizes it's own unique patterns. That is it.

In old times this was called principle-guided science.

Understanding of principles spares one from knowing all the details.

The problem here is that what everyone recognizes as clocks, you don't. The scientific consensus is elsewhere though. There is no reason to call a clocking pathway anything else if its purpose is to determine after how much time should something happen.
