Lol.
None of the negatives that this troll article name are actual negatives that normal humans have.
Especially the argument for timezones is "I can just Google what time it is in "....
You can always Google "what time is it at "
Which only works when timezones exist. Without timezones, the question would need to be "what time of day is it in ?", and you'd get "morning" or "afternoon". Any answer to that question is inherently more fuzzy than 8:25 or 17:16.
What time is it in Melbourne?
"The Standard Time is 4:05. The time of day is equivalent to 14:15 in your location."
Wasn't that hard to solve. And it's actually more precise, since it incorporates the changing times of sunrise and sundown.
