People will end up still complaining if we're on one or the other all year. They tried year-round DST in the seventies during the energy crisis, and people absolutely hated that there wasn't daylight until almost 9:00 a.m. at the worst of the winter, and I think people would not be a fan of it getting dark at 8 PM in the summer instead of the 9 PM we've been used to.

Because a non-natural time is dumb. I think we should stick to the time where noon is actually noon.

Sadly, that varies and makes days have non standard length. We could use a mean-noon as noon clock though
