Heidegger’s charge that Hegel merely formalized ordinary time became the standard view

Evidence

Many interpreters have concluded from this analysis that time was for Hegel nothing but a passing moment, something to be left behind. And it does appear that time itself, unwilling to forgive Absolute Knowledge for having ordained its dialectical suppression, has demanded reparations. In philosophy this demand has been articulated most forcefully by Heidegger, who argues that when time is sublated (aufgehoben) by spirit at the moment of Absolute Knowledge, this is in fact simply the vulgar or common notion of time. The ‘vulgar understanding of time’ is a conception that Heidegger believes has dominated the entire history of metaphysics and now ends with it. The stereotype is complete: ‘Hegel’s concept of time presents the most radical way in which the vulgar understanding of time has been given form conceptually’. — Catherine Malabou, The Future of Hegel, 189
