I'm confused. If a clock's rate can't be changed and it can't be enabled or disabled, then what's the point of representing that clock signal/line as a clock in the driver. Seems like a "nothing to see here, move along" type of clock. To express it differently, I find this similar to "if (1) { ... }". Obviously I'm missing something here. What is it?
