We have :30 and :45 time zones though, no :15 time zone. So that doesn't quite apply.

- chickenpotpie 3y agoDoesn't it? I was explaining why 1 hour as the standard makes sense instead of 30 minutes or 2 hours. The :45 time zones would still be an issue for 30 minute intervals and :30 and :45 are still an issue for 2 hour intervals
- RegnisGnaw 3y agoBut the 1 hour is not a standard, we have many places with :45 and :30 time zones. For example, Newfoundland is -3:30 time zone. Nepal is in a +5:45 time zone.
- chickenpotpie 3y agoAgain, I never said it was the standard. I was saying why 1 hour offsets make more sense than 15 minutes or two hours. I never said different offsets don't exist, I said why they make less sense
- Ferret7446 3y agoAnd those exceptions demonstrate why it's a bad idea to go beyond hour offsets. It's just added hassle.
