I don't know why people obsess over lighter evenings/darker mornings. It is hardly an inconvenience at all.

So how does it inconvenience you? The time zone affects when it is light out. Being in a later timezone would not inconvenience me. How would being in a later time zone inconvenience you other the fact the country of Germany would have the same time?

I find it is. If you tend to go outside in the evenings it is. For bike rides, it's one more hour of daylight to ride in.

Didn't get that was the reason. That's why I kept asking.

It's basically him saying: 'I have no rationale behind what I am saying, I have no reason for thinking this; I just hate Europe.'

It is noticeable, but it doesn't really inconvenience my life significantly. For most people, in the winter, it will be a case of going to work in the dark and coming home in the dark, so it isn't really relevant except on weekends.

I think you meant year-around. In the part of the year with longer daylength, it moves daylight from a time when I'm less likely to be out (5 am sunrises are pointless IMO, let alone the earlier ones we'd get without daylight savings time). Our winter daylength is longer, sunrise is at 7-7:30 am here, but sunset around solistice is 4:30 pm. So shifting would make a difference.

I like the early sunrises here - at least it means the sun will definitely be up when I am awake.
