Right now your solar noon is at 1pm because we’re currently on DST, which specifically shifts solar noon to 1pm. That’s how it works. When you “Fall Back” to standard time, your noon will match solar noon again.

It is. There’s no reason 8 to 4 would ever need to change. Keep it year-round

Everyone agrees to stop changing. The only contention is how. Stay on DST, or stay on Standard Time. Lots of people say like you, “More daylight in the evening please!” But they don’t realise all DST does is trick people into getting up early by lying to them, and breaking noon from the sun. Staying on standard time keeps the time sun connection. Then the “standard work day” can be changed to the more appropriate 8 to 4. You get the same effect as DST without lies, tricks, and changing solar noon. It’s cleaner than permanent DST.

When I lived up north by Canada, the logic was “you don’t want kids having to walk to/from school when it’s dark!!” Okay, so… wow, did you know they could change school hours.

The same argument works the other way. Keep noon as the point where the sun is highest. Then change the times of things for appropriate daylight. Daylight savings is just people agreeing to get up an hour earlier. Instead of “9 to 5”, everyone agrees to work 8 to 4. Which coincidentally puts solar noon perfectly in the middle of the work day. Isn’t that a surprise!

The news has never been a broadcast ratings powerhouse.
This shouldn’t be a surprise.

YouTube doesn’t like the news and politics stuff either.
They get demonetized constantly.

That makes sense.
