@Sigmatics you can have everyone on the same time zone and still have different day/night cycles. It just means you have to get up at 14:00 and go to sleep at 5:00. The big problem with this is that the date-switch happens for everyone at the same time, which means you might have breakfast on Thursday and lunch on Friday. That makes it terribly inconvenient, and therefore probably unviable.
Yeah that's kind of what I meant. People like their days to start at the same time every day. We are creatures of habit.
@Sigmatics Habits can be unlearned over a few generations. Doesn't mean in becomes practical all if a sudden. It's just messy to say "I'll do this tomorrow" when "tomorrow" might mean "before I go to bed".
"See you Monday!"
"Eh, before or after sleep on Monday?"
It's just not viable. It requires us to think differently about what a date is, returning the original issue: different people living at different dates.
