The only other thing that stays on is the NFC (for express transit cards) and Find My iPhone (for finding it). Which you can turn off if you want, I suppose, but I don't think even the EU would mandate you must lose your phone if it's turned off.

And besides, the phone can get the current time from the cell network when in boots, so your point is moot anyway.
