Maybe -- but we've already conceded so much to the notion that time moves at a constant rate that changing this one thing seems reasonable. The Romans had a twelve-hour day from sunup to sundown, regardless of the "length" of the day, but we've judged that to not be useful, especially once we have non-solar time-keeping devices. I think we've reached the time when having a mostly-monotonic clock outweighs the benefits of adapting the clock to match human behavior. On the other hand, the ubiquity of cell phones as timekeeping devices has made the transition a lot less noticeable, so maybe you have a point.
