    The difference is just another nit pick someone will find excuses to argue over

    No, it isn’t. The scientific research actually suggests that keeping DST is worse than switching back and forth. I have to admit I find that confusing, since a lot of the specific studies I’ve looked at concentrate on the effects caused by the switchover itself, but the meta-analysis doesn’t mince words:

    In summary, the scientific literature strongly argues against the switching between DST and Standard Time and even more so against adopting DST permanently.
