Please show references to these clocks that indicate up to 25 hours at DST end
and 23 hours at DST start.
Cultural references to time adjustments like DST, leap seconds, and leap years,
tell you very little about how clocks are expected to operate.
The North American power industry refers to the 25th hour, which is the repeated
third hour, as hour 2*, and military time usage runs from 0100Z to 2459Z to
avoid midnight confusion, instead of 0000Z to 2359Z, but all use the same clocks.
