But in order to see if 1600 universal time is a good time for everyone involved you’d need a system of charts telling everyone what time of day each time represents at different points across the world, and just like that you’ve reinvented time zones.

You really don’t lol. Again, you’re overthinking it. Everyone has to do that already. I say can we meet at 18:00? No, how about 19:00? Yeah that’s late for me but sure we can make it work.
That’s it. That’s already how it goes lol.
The change isn’t really meant for those parts anyway. It’s for the people who actually keep the world running logistically lol. That’s just the easiest to imagine for most.

We already have UTC, and nothing stopping anybody from using it to coordinate global activities.

Ok. It is 1430 Universal Time in Düsseldorf. Is now an appropriate time to call Bucharest during business hours?

Their website shows they’re open 1100-1900. So yes lol.

Your system provides no additional context and you still needed an outside source to validate that claim.
