Without an interface you cannot reset the time/date stamps on the vehicle itself, therefore diagnostics cannot pinpoint the real time an event occurred - only indicate in relation to whatever date/time is in the system when interrogated.
Also as the dash displays date and time - for me - this would annoy the hell out of me [emoji41]
The Connects2 interfaces retain this - but not for 2010/11 models at this stage.
