No, it is because formatTime returns something on the order of "12:03
am" whereas the toString method of QTime returns "00:03".  When used for
"time remaining" the 2nd form makes much more sense.  It isn't an
absolute time we are interested in per se but a relative time, and the
locale stuff doesn't even have that concept.
