Does any standard time make “sense”. There are three parts to this:
1. Should we go back to the same sort of clock (still used by Yidden to determine when to daven) based on sun time, roughly dividing the daylight into 12 hours (hour length varies during the year). The goyim switched a few centuries ago, at most.
2. Should we have time zones at all (they were introduced by the railroads in the 19th century). Before then Baltimore and New York would have different times – but before telecommunications no one cared.
3. The idea of daylight savings is not to “waste” the early morning daylight when everyone is sleeping and to move that daylight to evening when people are awake and about. Unless you are into a “Visikin” minyan, you probably get up at the same time regardless of whether it is dark out or not. If you don’t like daylight savings, or standard times, one can alway get up consistently at the same time regardless of government time (note that most people going to a Viskin minyan, get up roughly an hour before sunrise regardless of official times).
