Good guess, but I am not from Germany. I just like the feddit instance.
Nonetheless you are right. The clock, the time zones - all of it are arbitrary and purely human inventions. However, I would argue there is an inherit value of keeping the timezones as accurate as possible.
My argument stems from seagoing. It makes much more sense from navigational and travel stand point to have the time zones roughly correlate to the zenith of the sun. I presume in aviation it could be similar, but not sure about that one.
This would make the navigation easier, travel easier and we would have some kind of concrete, unified system.
Of course dropping the DST are just baby steps. There are so many things wrong with our time system, but one can start somewhere.
In essence I guess I just want the time zones to mean something instead of this madness, that we have.
