    You realize DST is zero sum, right? Anything you gain in the evening, you lose in the morning, and vice versa.

    Also, anything you gain in the spring, you lose in the fall, and vice versa.

    Nothing is ever gained.

    It’s the change that is an extra inconvenience that causes disruption in people’s plans and circadian rhythms. Also, for the neurotic out there, the clock is technically wrong during DST as it doesn’t reflect the sun’s position in the sky.
