Not only is Zenith at a different time every few kilometers but also during the year, that means you say goodbye to 24h days and to a unified time across multiple countries.
Yep, people have very strict opinions on this. All sides are like - it’s simple, no need for discussions, just do it the way I see it. The possibility of not changing the time twice a year is not enough for most people to be ok with ending up with a time system they don’t like. The emotions are too intensive. That’s why previous attempts failed and we’re stuck with this nonsense.
12 is at suns zenith, done.
If we want to adjust our working hours, we can do that, no need to change the clock itself.

Sure, well just solve this problems how we have already solved it. Something along the lines of a mean or median value.
So it’s not “12 is at suns zenith”, it’s just normal time instead of offset time. Got it.
oh come on, thats a nitpick if I ever saw one.
We’re generally discussing two alternatives: noon att zenith(ish) vs noon at zenith(ish) - 1hour
In France and Spain, it’s closer to noon at z-1 or z-2
