This is silly. We don’t need fewer time zones, we need more of them: one for each major metro. It’s not 1870 anymore. Time should jump by a few seconds every night at 3 a.m. so that sunrise is always at seven a.m.—no daylight savings nonsense. Humans would once again wake with the dawn, the way nature intended, which would be a boon to health and mental well-being. If you need to know the time in some other area, just ask Siri, Google, or Alexa.

> sunrise is always at seven a.m

Why is fixed time for sunrise more important than fixed time for sunset?

I don't care if it's dark in the morning, I'm just gonna sit in an office anyway. I'd rather have more sunlight in the evening when I can go outside.
