I think culture is more resistant to change than you realize. I would very much predict that for most of my lifetime, businesses will continue to open at 9am regardless of whether we decide to permanently shift the clocks forward or permanently shift them back. Nine o'clock is the number burned into people's brains.

And the rest of culture more or less follows that one start time.

Walking around a city today, I saw a bunch of different shop opening times, from 7am to 11am in half hour increments. I don't think 9am is that important.
