I was not arguing for a single timezone nor surprised that US has multiple timezones. the surprise was that even after multiple timezones, they need so much adjustment twice a year -- which is what I was arguing against. (to be more specific the argument was against how they go about that adjustment -- not that an adjustment is needed which is understandably due to geography and seasons)
you quoted half my sentence which creates an easy strawman.

yes that is essentially my argument too ...with an extra accommodation for folks who will argue about seasons causing wild changes in sunrise / sunset / daylight.
