    Side benefit: mid-day is once again at 12:00, instead of being at 13:00 DST. Not an issue for some, but it’s annoying for me to know that the sun’s local apex is an hour later than it should be.

      mid-day is once again at 12:00,

      It is 12:00 only in the middle of the time zone. Mid-day is now approximately 11:30AM on the eastern end of the timezone.

      Local noon is only solar noon in a thin strip for any given time zone, if it ever is.
