What is wrong with this paragraph: "I think daylight-saving time should be abolished. It feels unnecessary and more disruptive than helpful (Merriam-Webster, n.d.). Changing the clocks twice a year throws off people's sleep schedules, causes confusion, and just feels outdated. We live in a world with constant artificial lighting and flexible work hours, shifting time around isn't doing us any real favors anymore. I do not think it is needed. A consistent, year-round time would be simpler, healthier, and way less annoying."
