Maybe because the time in which it happens is one of the least important
identifying characteristics of an event, so that two that only differ
in that are almost perceived as the same, just like today's John is
almost perceived as the same as yesterday's John.

Also, the x3 of krefu suggests that what differs is precisely the time
of occurence. How else would they be naturally ordered?
