This is very absurd, you are mixing a game mechanism (and exploit it) make for qol with the history plot.Unfortunately you can skip time 24 hours again and again and again and nothing happens to you. I think Ive gone more than 6 moths (in game) just screwing around and refreshing shop inventories but my V is still alive. When I realised theres no consequence for pushing time forward by months it really made the story feel flat
By the same logic you could discuss how V can carry 50 weapons, 200 inhalers and their entire weardrove at the same time. Or how they never need to sleep, eat, drink...
All these things are game mechanics, that all
