Why would I care who it was invented for?

Why would it be invented for me?

I am not in a country that practices DST.

That said, I've never understood how people can get all wrapped around the
axle about DST. Right now, it's approaching 8:30 PM here. If we weren't
on DST, it would be approaching 7:30 PM. I couldn't care less which time
it is. Anything I can do in the dark I can do in the light; anything I
can do in the light I can do in the dark. Especially living in a nation
advanced enough to have electricity.
