> they massively simplify life most of time they come up. I have coworkers and friends in different timezones, and timezones do literally nothing but complicate coordination. Even if it's a small friction, they are 100% friction. As far as I can tell, the main benefit of timezones is that it allows people within the same timezone to converse as if timezones don't exist. Which would also be the case if timezones didn't exist.
