Yep,

Where I live in June with DLS the sun rises ~5:30a and sets ~8:30p

without DLS it would rise ~4:30a and set ~7:30p

Whether the sun rises at 4:30 or 5:30am probably makes no difference to 99% of the people.

However, the sun setting at 8:30 vs 7:30 does have a big positive impact

I love DST. Where we are, sun sets at 9:05 at the latest and doesn’t get dark until 9:30. It gives so much time to do things outdoors at night. I would hate to see it set an hour earlier and rise long before most people wake up. Early and late summer would have very short times with sunlight.
