I do not know what you have been told on other lists, but special
relativity is a geometric theory with the notion of a point-like
event as a fundamental concept. Clocks are idealized to be
present at any given event, not as an extended object but as a
point-like particle. One can deal with a clock as an extended
object in relativity, but such techniques are _vastly_ more
complex than standard analysis.
