This is completely unrelated, but I just want to say that it brings a genuine smile to my face to see someone else use 24-hour time.

I wish more people would see the value it has in everyday life!

I use 24-hour time personally but to be honest the only thing it's good for is disambiguating 12 midnight from 12 noon.

Tbf that's a huge benefit.

And it's not like 12-hour time has more benefits or fewer downsides than 24-hour time.
