“there isn’t enough light after paid work to do any outdoor chores and stuff”
Are you aware they sell artificial light nowadays?
We aren’t totally medieval-we have plenty of electricity and light, thanks. Chores aren’t about the lack artificial light, or the ability to use it. Livestock is pretty ignorant, though-goats, chickens, etc don’t stand patiently and wait for someone to bring a light after dark to get them penned so they won’t get eaten by predators-animals live in the natural world, and don’t give a damn if the clock is set forward an hour...
