A decent compromise would be to introduce half hour time zones. It makes near zero sense that the sun rises and sets roughly 50 minutes earlier in Boston than it does in Detroit, yet they are in the same time zone.
Half hour zones would reduce that to a mere 20 minutes difference.

Wasn’t some or part of Hawaii like that when Pearl Harbor was bombed? I seem to recall reading years ago that part of putting together the puzzle after the fact and building a timeline of events was difficult until they realized the half-hour offset thing.

New England is so far east, it should be in the Atlantic time zone.
Make the NY border the cut off. It keeps getting talked about every year but the Massholes are the ones mucking it up.
