Timed Alarms only work if System Uptime or Countdown Timer are enabled

I've noticed that Alarm1 and Alarm2 alarms don't currently work unless System Uptime, or Countdown Timer, or both, are enabled.
As far as I can tell, it's caused by MeasureLocalTime being disabled unless one of these two options has been selected; because the MeasureAlarm[12]Diff depend on MeasureLocalTime, MeasureLocalTime being disabled means the Diff value isn't recalculated.
The solution seems to be to update MeasureLocalTime in Chronometer.ini to change the Disabled logic.
Replace
Disabled=(#showSystemUptime# = 0) && (#showEventCountdown# = 0)
with
Disabled=(#showSystemUptime# = 0) && (#showEventCountdown# = 0) && (#enableAlarm1# = 0) && (#enableAlarm2# = 0)
Making this change locally fixed the problem; alarms sounded as expected.
Alternatively, I'm wondering if changing MeasureAlarm1Diff and MeasureAlarm2Diff to calculate the difference from MeasurePrimaryTime instead of MeasureLocalTime would also address the problem; it's not immediately clear to me why both are needed.
