It should be implemented in people's brains.

How this goes, usually, is:

Them:...before 6PM.

Me: 6PM... Ours? The server's? The user's?

Them: GMT, of course.

Me: So that's 7PM London right now, and changes to 6PM in November?

Them: What no are you stupid. Always 6PM GMT.

Me:* jumps off a cliff*

GMT doesn’t have daylight savings but London does
