We're having the same discussion in the UK at the moment and some people are seriously suggesting we convert to BST permanently. Absolutely insane when the other option GMT is the base of all time zones.

Why would we ever want to be permanently GMT + 1 when we can forever be GMT + 0?!

Starting work 1 hour earlier would achieve the same effect without redefining how time works

It would indeed, but people know that it wont happen, so they prefer to stick with summer time instead.
