More directly, what advantage does "permanent DST" offer over simply getting up an hour earlier, getting off work an hour earlier, and enjoying more time in the evenings? You don't need the clocks to change for that.
Because I want my neighbours to also enjoy "more time in the evenings". It is for their own good, they will thank me for it later.
It doesn't work. There's scriptural evidence, Matthew 20:1-16 KJV, that in the past four centuries clocks have been advanced six hours. People accommodated, not by getting up six hours astronomical time earlier, but by getting up six hours clock time later. -- gil
