Winter sucks anyways when you live in the north. I grew up at 56 degrees north and you are cooked no matter what is done. Better to optimize April-October.

In summer when there's lots of sunlight, the benefit of an extra hour--while not zero--isn't that significant.

We tried permanent DST in the US in the 1970s. People hated it.
