It is.

If "people want more daylight hours after work" and it's worth making sweeping disruptive changes to make it happen...

Then just make the workday from 8 to 4 instead of 9 to 5.

No no, instead of making a sane clock and using whatever times we want on it, it obviously makes more sense to make a messed up clock.

What other measuring implements and scales should we move around so the numbers please us better?

Everything is expensive, let's change the way any monetary value is written to be -1 based. Henceforth all prices shall be written on a scale that starts at -1 instead of 0. If a thing cost $4 yesterday, it now costs the same 4 dollars, but the price is written as $3. This will give e eryone more money! I call it permanent wallet saving prices!
