Our local ambulances have those LED lights *and* the elevation to point them right at my retina. I must have blinked my high beams at them half a dozen different occasions before learning to recognize them. I mean, I'm happy that they can see into the future with those damned lights, but I just want to see outside my vehicle.

That's a nice copy/paste from Google's first hit, but it completely ignores Arizona, Hawaii, Guam, Puerto Rico... And that's just US. (And there are more) Here's a whole list of countries without DST that your quick Google didn't catch: https://greenwichmeantime.com/countries
None of which had anything to do with the point that we already have mismatches in time change that cause the problems you claim would be caused by not participating.

The problems you're pretending would exist already do, and would actually be removed if we all stopped changing the clocks. There are lots of places that don't change them, and even more that change them on a different schedule.

A problem more easily solved by changing school hours than clocks.
