As a matter of fact, that's one of the features of Rebel 10 that I like.  I can
set the rating at say 1600 and it will use it's time just like playing a regular
game.  I don't know what it does with it's time but somehow it waste time to
make the feel of the game very "normal".  J5 & F5 as you stated do not do this
but in the sparring mode they try to set up shots for me to find.  I very much
like that feature since it "feeds" my poor ego which needs nursing after playing
regular blitz.
