There is also a study that found a correlation between changing the clock to heart attacks incidents rising, suggesting that it might be caused by the clock change which triggers stress and sleep deprivation which triggers a heart attack
The Romans’ did that as a naturally consequence of using sun dials for timekeeping. Hours were also shorter during winter. I think that would be a nice system to have.

Yep, which leads us to the natural conclusion that noon on the clock should roughly equate to solar noon, year round.
That would mean ~360 timezones globally. More if you didn’t simplify to a single degree.
Coordinating is enough of a pain across timezones without having to worry (much) about minutes.

You can get DST on a sundial. Just rotate it 15 degrees so sunrise is at 7
But that won’t make hours shorter
