> go off dst right when days get the shortest?? dst is normally stupid, but dst during winter is even dumber. what happens is that people would wake up in the dark and then commute home in the dark because the day is so short. > most people woke up in darkness for a large portion of history this obviously never happened. people didn't have wide access to artificial lighting until relatively recently. waking up at 4am in the pitch blackness back in the day is totally pointless.
