Maybe when we are an interplanetary civilization, but then only if the balance of financial power shifts off of Earth.

We are still trying to dig ourselves out of old systems where “today” and “yesterday” are logically different and we hide the problems by assuming most users are asleep at midnight. Most new systems don’t have this problem but older ones equate “tomorrow” with “start of business the day after tomorrow”.
