Go to timeanddate.com and look up your location, it shows the time of solar high noon. You'll notice that time isn't stationary but it drifts around by about half an hour throughout the year. There's no single perfect "God's time" for any location on the planet because then we'd have to be shifting our clocks by small amounts every day. Maybe that's what astronomers do but it's not practical for the rest of us.

Even at high latitudes DST is better. Funny you should mention Alaska, it stretches far west of its accurate time zone and basically has year-round DST already, it just gets even more extreme in the summer when places like Gambell have their solar noon at 3:30 PM.

I live in Europe at ~60°N and I'd still prefer it if the little daylight we currently get lasted longer into the afternoon. Mornings are less relevant because they belong to the employer and shifting the light later in the day would also let us enjoy more of the long twilight before sunrise.

Same in the summer, I'll take 11 PM sunsets over 10 PM and so would most of the country, we tried permanent standard time and everyone hated it because people were used to outdoor activities until midnight. There's no point in wasting daylight at 3 AM when people are awake from 8 AM to 1 AM.

Nobody cares about mornings because they belong to the employer, evenings are free time and more light makes them more valuable.
