Some of us would like to train/cycle/commute in the warmer, lighted afternoon hours. But because of a multitude of reasons, must rise earlier to do what we love. As I understand this, this will rob morning light to pay the late afternoon. This wouldn't be that helpful to the morning people.
From a neighbourly point of view, imagine the hassle of crossing the north/south border - no not Mason/Dixon! - only to find that you have somehow travelled time?
Yeah yeah, who cares, if it makes sense, just do it. As an outsider, and someone who lives in a weird land that doesn't "save" daylight-ever, I just don't think this makes sense.
