You good with the sun coming up at 4:30am in the summer, or 8:30am in the winter?

The other animals don’t seem to care.

I like the way the ancient Romans marked time. From sunrise to sunset was divided into 12 equal parts and sunset to sunrise was also divided into 12 equal parts. the length of an hour changed each day and from place to place but stayed in tune with nature.

Sure, why not?

Maybe everyone should just adopt GMT, and then just synchronize their daily schedule with sunrise/sunset. Just like in olden times, but with clocks as needed.
