Which is strange, because it does not follow the concept that all other of those time"stamps" do.
12 AM implies that 12 hours of something has passed, but it's nothing that we would align our lives against. And why is 11 AM after 12 AM on the same day? There's no logic (ok, some, but... well... a strange one) behind that.
