    Settling at half increments isn’t a bad idea in theory but it will be hell for international business because the average person is a moron.

    If you’re going to go this radical just abolish time zones and use UTC. Then locally decide what time is the start of standard business and what is not.

        Excluding India, the GDP of those times zones is pretty damn small no? There’s not a massive amount of international trade and business, meaning fewer morons to fuck the time difference up.

        I’m fully stating that the average person is functionally idiotic as it is, based on the meeting times I’ve been booked.
