Why don't we have one timezone covering the whole earth? - eviltoast

And instead changing the time work and other things happens depending on where you are. Would be easier to arrange meetings across the globe. Same thing applies to summertime. You may start work earlier if you want, but dont change the clocks!

    Yes, the main question is picking between:

    1. The time numbers are the same around the world, but schedules are shifted.
    2. The time numbers are shifted, but schedules are roughly the same.

    Personally I think 1 is more valuable because being able to easily and reliably talk about time seems more useful than being able to have my phone time show a number that lets me guess schedules when visiting a place.
