I personally would rather have more daylight in the mornings than in the evenings during winter. Makes it way easier to wake up. Maybe lots of other people feel the same way.
That only works at a certain latitude. Further north it remains dark in the morning anyway
It still helps, it's just not as big a difference as further south.
Where I live, in December it's dark when I go to work and dark when I get out. That's just how it is, so who cares?
Meanwhile in June I can't get to sleep due to they sky still being bright and blocking melatonin production until about 11pm. If we got rid of DST it'd get dark at 10pm.
And I don't care if sunrise would end up 4:30am. It's easy to set up blackout curtains in the bedroom to stay asleep.
I'd rather have sunlight when I get home off of work to be able to do stuff outside before it gets way too cold and dark. In the mornings before work I typically don't go outside so it can be dark
Yep. A lot easier to have blackout curtain in just your bedroom to stay asleep than it is to have them all over your house to build up melatonin in the evenings during summer
I've found people would either like change or not mind it.
But like you said, they can't agree on which way so thus it is.
I honestly dgaf about any of it. I'm fine with the current system.
