What a fucking mess that would be, nobody would have any idea what time of day anyone was talking about when they said "8 o'clock". You'd always have to check. Now you only have to check if you want stuff to happen simultaneously.

There's a good reason time zones exist and why shit doesn't work so well in China with just one. "Work starts at 8" might have a pretty different meaning to different parts over there lmao.
