And that’s my whole point. There are all these things we attribute to the time change that are actually just seasonal and due to our latitude.

The problem with these debates is when we focus too much on the extremes (solstices) and not enough on the in between. As I type this at 440pm 6 weeks between both equinox and solstice, most of the city has effectively entered twilight (sun may not have officially set, but it's not visible anymore if there is the slightest obstruction).
December is basically just ####ed no matter what. October was fine...November now sucks and so will Jan/Feb/March. Could Feb be more like October?
I'm on team evening light, but the sensible compromise if every jurisdiction can get on board is to go in the middle: UTC-6:30.
