Ok but for most people work hours are dictated by a shared clock (and many daily activities as well) so... It becomes a coordination problem if we don't all agree on what time it is in each locale.

I appreciate the coordination problem here, but I do think that states are making it harder than it needs to be. The federal government doesn't need to be involved. Each state can decide on their own how to coordinate this, it does not need to be the entire nation (and indeed it already isn't, as the examples of AZ and HI show).

Considering that one of the biggest problems in our country today is trying to run more and more at the federal level instead of at the state level, it's really silly to add to that pile.

Let the market decide. If it's worth it to some people, then they'll pay for the privilege of doing so.

Right now, the revealed preference is that there is zero demand for it.

Obviously request a reasonable accommodation and sue if you don’t get it.
