The reason the comments are snarky is because getting rid of timezones is a monumentally stupid idea that doesn't solve the problem it thinks it's solving. When you are scheduling a meeting with people in a different timezone, you need to figure out what a specific time is and what a specific time means for both parties. Because times have meaning, we know that 8:00 is breakfast, 12:00 is lunch, 18:00 is dinner and 23:00 is night and people are sleeping. Timezones force you to do a lookup to figure out what the time is in the other location, and given that knowledge, you know because of universal global conventions what that time means, so you can avoid scheduling a meeting when they are probably sleeping. If you remove timezones, you no longer have to do a lookup to figure out what the time is in the other location, because it's the same everywhere - yaaaayyyy!!! - but you still have to do a lookup to figure out what a specific time means. Is the sun up? Are they sleeping? Are they at work? You know that you wake up at 17:00, eat breakfast at 18:00 and have to be at work at 19:00, but you have no idea at what time people typically do that at the other location. You have perfect knowledge of what the time is everywhere, but you have no knowledge of what times mean anymore. Great. And that's just one of the multiple issues with removing timezones.
