Biologically, don't most people wake up at dawn? That doesn't get you to the office at 7:30 AM in the winter.

That is, our schedule is not a biologically-based schedule. "Morning" (as defined by our society) is not the biological default.

Sure, but you're quibbling over an hour here or there. When people use the term "night person" they don't mean someone who wakes up at e.g. 8 instead of 7, we're talking about pushing back work by many hours, which just isn't possible for most people without a much shorter work day (I'm ok with that!)
