Well I know here in the northern half of the hemisphere it saves us from sending our children to school in the dark in the middle of winter.
And in the summer and spring it works for farmers to have that extra hour of daylight at night.
How would it kill people to change the time you wake up and go to sleep
Its uncomfortable true, but we would have daylight into 10:00 at night and darkness all the time in winter. I also live in the north. Last, I know farmers, they need eveybit of light they can get working the fields. I see them working by headlights all the time. Its miserable dangerous work and planting and harvest do not wait. Mother nature always wants to rain on a dry field and the farmers chase the sun trying to get their work done. Its uncomfortable but helps the people put food on your plate.
Exactly that. I actually do better in the spring when the time goes forward an hour.
I'm always so tired in winter at night because my body doesn't adjust to the later hours.
Clock change creates a huge inconvenience and shortens the lifespan for people who are victims of their presence on earth: school age children, slave labor forced to particular schedule, etc.
Up here in the north it's a matter of time and season and heat and light. It cost a lot more to heat buildings like schools and offices in the dark than a does the day like that is why we change the time here
Also it's a lot safer to be transporting children during the daylight hours than it is in the dark in the dead of einter is 10 below and colder. I know you're trying to the philosophical about this but common sense and practicality also has something to do with it
