An hour of sunlight from 4-5 is useless. Most people will still be working. The tradeoff is that most people have to wake up and go to school/work in complete darkness during the winter.

It's only in the very dead of winter that the extra hour is from 4-5 (which still means it's lighter at 5 than it would have been). In the shoulder seasons you definitely get more light after work.
