Let's just flip a coin. Heads we stick with summer time, tails we stick with standard. In 2026 it goes live. Gives everyone 2 years to update what they need. Humans will adapt.
Sure, I'm down. My point is, there's really no point to over-analyse it. Choose one, flip a coin, hold a referendum, I really don't care as long as we stop having these pointless changes twice a year.
There just always seems to be an excuse and then it goes into an argument of standard over summer. It really doesn't matter. It's impossible to please all and cover every single use-case. Humans will adapt.
I know I might be crazy for saying this, but I prefer midnight to be at 00:00, not 01:00.
Unless you live on one of the 24 astronomical borders between timezones it's neither anyway
