But you can work with others and figure those things out together, all with autonomy.

"Hey, I'm gonna be in a different TZ next week and 9AM standups really won't work for me, can we find a time in the afternoon that works for all of us?"

"Hey, Jane and i were talking and we really want to try making this standing meeting into something async for a month and see if it works for folks, how does everyone else feel about it?"

Of course you have to work with others, and you may have to work with others that for various reasons are in a very 9-5 schedule, but if you have autonomy, you can figure out how to do that without it meaning "Be at your desk by 9AM or else!"
