It's kinda funny, discussions about time zones usually devolve into the idiotic "UTC everywhere" suggestion, but your suggestion is the complete opposite, and will result in time being different for everyone, from city to city.
So you'll have a gradual half-hour difference between San Diego and Seattle in the summer. When it's sunrise in San Diego, it's Half Past Sunrise in Seattle. You're in Seattle, you have a phone meeting with someone in San Diego at two hours past sunrise. Uh, when is that again? Oh, and you bring in a third party from someone in SF, he's 15 minutes off to both of you.

- henrikschroder 7y agoAh, ok, you don't want to move time, you want to move opening hours relative to sunrise. Gotcha. That's not insane, but it's a very, very, very hard sell. I think the closest you can get is having schools and workplaces move their starting hours by half-hour increments across the year.
