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

We already have it: it’s called UTC. You should read about it probably, instead of asking the whole fucking world to change its uses for your convenience, shouldn’t you?
My guy, instead of being condescending for no reason, perhaps you should take the time to actually understand OP’s question.
OP is asking about why the world doesn’t unite under one time zone (UTC+0, UTC-5, UTC+8), not time standard (UTC, TAI, GPST). The hypothetical scenario would be that midnight in the UK would be morning in Japan and evening in the US, but still considered “12 AM” by everyone in those countries.
I understand the question very well, it was asked a week or two ago.
This doesn’t simplify anything for anyone because then time would mean nothing. Because of this people would not use this system anyway.
Then please use that as your answer instead of taking such a needlessly aggressive and rude stance in your comment.

This response was pointlessly aggressive.
