How so?

From the countries in a temperate zone that have the same timezone as the main Brazilian one only Paraguay has DST. Losing sync with Argentina and Uruguay is quite a high price to play to keep sync with Paraguay.

For every other country, our DST is just some weirdness that they have to adapt to for no reason.



Thanks, I thought Argentina was less enlightened than they are. It is odd that Paraguay does it, because the "reduce energy" myth means little there: they export surplus hydro power.
