I'm sorry, i forgot to put the fields of the finished moments of the previous
subcontext (or last subcontext).

Note: to request the seconds from 1970 of timer clock can be slow (or not) when
the things are measured in nanoseconds, so that by a design decision, it is
possible not to recommend the use of this slow request.
Sincerely yours, J.C.
