Right.  At the risk of stating the obvious: Raku's documentation does have an example of calling clock_gettime from a native C library, but that's not because the native library call is the preferred way to get the time.  It's because that function is expected to be available on developers' systems, making it an example they can probably run and trivially modify in order to solidify their understanding of the example.

Other than educational purposes, there probably isn't a good reason to call a native library to get the time in Raku.
