I think you’re right, however, I think the person you’re replying to may also.

And is shorthanding “everyone without direct experience of the influential power of market forces” into “most of us.”

I think it’s fair to say that the fact that more or most people _don’t_ understand that and _do_ think it’s “all just leadership” explains much of the sentiment about capitalism generally.

Oh man - this was my position as well for a long time.

And then I realized that you can’t even count on “high noon” meaning much at all, DST or not, because using solar noon is basically the same thing as having arbitrarily many timezones for each unique longitudinal point on Earth.

Now I’m tempted to go full UTC and to hell with all of it
