timeful = time (transparent) = time + ful

Derived by productive suffixation (time + -ful) to indicate relation to or concern with time; learners can reasonably infer this meaning.

Etymology

Timeful is built from time 'the passing of hours' and -ful 'full of', like in useful. So a timeful view is one that 'takes time into account' when planning or measuring.
