Part of my understanding for thr time change was for safety for children going to school. In the winter it’s still quite dark where I live until at least 7:45. This means you have children standing close to the road in darkness waiting for the bus. Especially in rural ares where the trip can be an hour or more for school. This would be true for thr latitudes of at least Philadelphia in the USA and north. This would cover most of nothern Italy and Europe as well.
If we didn’t roll back we’d be extending the darkness even more in the winter. Sure we could change hours of operation for schools, government, business, stock markets etc but is that feasible ?
