In `BFTTime`, if a validator’s clock was behind, the [validator added 1 millisecond to the previous block’s time and used that in its vote messages](https://github.com/tendermint/tendermint/blob/e8013281281985e3ada7819f42502b09623d24a0/internal/consensus/state.go#L2246).
A goal of adding proposer-based timestamps is to enforce some degree of clock synchronization, so having a mechanism that completely ignores the validator’s local time no longer works.
Validator clocks may not be perfectly in sync.
Validator clocks will not be perfectly in sync.
Therefore, the proposer’s local time may be less than the `LastCommit.Timestamp`.
If the proposer’s local time is less than the `LastCommit.Timestamp`, the proposer will sleep until its local time exceeds it.
