The vast majority of people live in eastern China so that’s an apples to oranges comparison.
I’m all for getting rid of DST but definitely not for getting rid of timezones in North America. Not only is that too much distance to cover in 1 timezone, would South America just get screwed over given that part of South America overlaps in longitude? Should we cover both continents with one timezone or does South America have to suffer with the annoyance of having just some countries in the same timezone as North America? Both of those options sound terrible.
