Then you just need to implement a global system of determining how people's activities are aligned locally. What you end up with is timezones by another name.

Timezones are a lot less of a problem now that we are using calendar apps to book events. Better integration of tools to negotiate availability would make that even easier.

The problem that people largely govern their activities by the rotation of the earth and we are in different places on that globe doesn't go away.

But why I need to come up with system similar to timezones? You translate all hours once and that's it, no? It might be weird at first have business hours from 9pm to 3am, but those are just numbers. I don't find it any more weird than starting a day at 6am.

It’s not about local time. It is about a way to find out when someone at a distance is active and available. You need some method to know that. Timezones are such a method.
