It doesn't work like that; You are ignoring all the other accidents that happened during the day and refusing to account for other factors (such as less staff during off-hours).

Some fields, especially medicine, take this to extremes, but I’m having a hard time imagining that switching a few days a week from from 9-5 to 12-8pm would be disasterous. Plus, the stakes are pretty low at barbershops.

The stakes are going out of business, which defeats the whole purpose of moving to unconventional hours.

The parent comment mentioned 3 mile island, chernobyl and bhopal, which seemed to be suggesting that shifted hours would lead to...i don't even know what.
This goes to a lack of understanding of how the 24 hr body clock works and what the cost is when everyone is functioning out of sync.
In the search for efficiency, we make people go out of sync with the rest of herd all the time.
This has consequences to their lives, their families and sooner or later the cascading consequences lead to things like 3 mile island, chernobyl and bhopal. Check what time they happened.
