The only arguments I’ve heard for permanent DST is the bogus ‘light in the evenings promotes shopping - good for the economy!’ As if no one has headlights and there aren’t already ridiculously bright street lights everywhere.

I’d say if we’re honestly looking at what’s best, it’s the sleep experts we should be listening to. Not some randos who have no idea what they’re talking about.
American sleep experts wouldn’t see the same extremes of light and dark that we do in the winter and summer months. So Canadian or Scandinavian experts would need to be consulted.

I think it’s pretty clear that changing is bad.

In the winter I appreciate the hour of light but sunrise at 4:22 am on June 21st isn’t anywhere near natural.
