So instead of multiple clocks, you tape sticky notes on your one clock when different cities have high noon.
You must always do the translation, with or without a universal time zone. The difference is that with universal time, it discards the entire set of translations around scheduling conversion that already happen, and it fixes the horrible mess of anyone living near a time zone boundary being in perpetual scheduling hell.

Especially when a) you're badgering them to conform to some hairbrained sticky note engineering and b) they already have something that works.
- inimino 10y agoYou could still have your wall of clocks. They would all show the same time but each clock face would be shaded half black and half white to show the average daylight period in that city.
