I generally agreed with this take, until I realized that this would imply changing the calendar day in the middle of the working day for some countries. If we can socially overcome this challenge, then I’m fully in
Just make all clocks that are connected to internet run 0.1% faster / slower until you are at UTC+12 and in about one and a half years everyone should be caught up. People will only have to change their mechanical watches by 1.4 minutes every day, so it should hardly be noticeable
Not my point though, I just think that it’s not convenient that you’ll be in your office at 00:00UTC and suddenly the date of all your documents has to be different from the one it was a minute ago

Every country doesn’t need to change time at the same time
