Between the two, months is much harder. With time, you just set your clocks to UTC. To get months fixed you need mass adoption, rewriting calendar software, etc.

Bold of you to assume people will agree to having sunrises at 9am while some other country gets the privilege of getting it at the usual 6

You're upset that it's sunrise at 06:00 somewhere and not that some other lucky bastard landed sunrise at 00:00?

(that might actually happen over the ocean, I have not checked)
