No one is forced but people can elect to ‘swap time’ 1 for 1. Money today can’t be swapped 1 for 1 but I guess I ask the question ? Can time ?

There was a movie with that premise i think [1].

All around, money is a better currency of exchange than time, or any other measure really. It measures well the actual value of time , effort, what have you. 1-to-1 time currency would be particularly bad choice, just imagine how much time you would have to pay back for someone who was born 60 years ago. Life was much much slower and unproductive. In the same amount of time today you can do multiple times the work/product that they did.
