Not always possible to leave for home earlier (with meetings and such)

But you’re not actually leaving earlier, it’s the exact same point in time whether you call it 6pm EST or 7pm EDT.

Not trying to be patronizing as I realize you are not dumb and know this but I’m explaining the disconnect between sides of this argument.

Book a standing meeting on your calend/ar to leave at 4 (or whenever). For exceptional meetings, make an exception and stay late. Probably come in early, or some how signal that you're not a slacker, just running a different schedule. This obviously doesn't work in all environments, but it can in many.
