Comment on Why don't we have one timezone covering the whole earth?

You have to do that anyway.

So there will be no improvement by making a global change that needs everyone to agree to re-learn the systems they are already familiar with.

There will be sn improvement of course. That kind of thinking is why the USA still uses imperial after 200 years of the metric system.

How? What’s improved? I still need to look up what the local working ours would be in a certain area I’m trying to call as 9-5 in what is currently EST would be 12-8 in PST. That’s pretty much the same as checking the time zone difference. What’s changed?

It isn’t an improvement and your comparison is false.
