Yes, it means we would get more sunshine in the evening during the winter.

And we are going to have to go to bed one hour earlier, and get up one hour earlier, relative to sunset/sunrise. It makes no sense.

It makes perfect sense, we'll get an extra hour of sunshine in the evening.

But many people don't care about that, and would rather not get up an hour early every day relative to actual night and day cycles.

Luckily enough, the (loud) minority on this one is getting overruled.

But many people don't care about having extra sunshine in the morning and would much rather have an extra hour in the evening. Many probably consider "actual day and night cycles" to be a man made construct anyway.
There's definitely two sides to this but it seems most people want daylight in the evening rather than the morning, so saying "it makes no sense" isn't being intellectually honest, to be honest.
