We've always had it (for as long as I've been alive, anyway), so I'm completely used to it. The time is the time because we say it's the time. 12 am is 12am because we say it is. If we start calling it 3am then it's 3am. Just like a rose is a rose because that's what we call it. If we call it "tubbleberg", it still has its physical form but it's called tubbleberg.
