So OP is trying to start a fight. Who gets noon overhead? Because your gonna get shooting wars over that, or you’re go na spend the rest of your life in the dark because corporate is on the otherside.of the planet and 0800 is start time.

Huh???
Just because everyone would be using the same clock doesn’t mean we’d all be awake at the same time or suddenly forget that the day is different at different places on the globe.
Let’s say there’s a chain store that’s normally open 8am to 8pm. That’s 4 hours before noon to 8 hours after. Now in our new system the whole world uses the same clock/time. Solar noon in your area now happens at 05:00. So the store’s new hours are 01:00 to 13:00. And the one on the other side of the country might be 03:00 to 15:00.
This may make travelling a bit more complex but it would make coordination and communication across time zones in our interconnected world easier.
I’m not saying that switching to this is a great idea, we’re already used to our current system. I just think it wouldn’t be as big of a deal as you think.
This kinda already happens in China. The whole country uses one time zone, despite being as wide as 5 time zones. And it’s based on Beijing wayyyy in the east. Solar noon is like 3-4pm on the western side.

I’m sorry I’m trying to start a fight? How did you interpret my comment that way?
