According to the builder, it was selling well (he was on version 5 of the board). He said he just decided (no feedback) that no one would use the dial more than once, so he removed it.

For money talks, I would have thought having a capability to use any numeric offset, so it could be used by, hence sell to, anyone, would have made sense. And 'for money talks', that's fine for time-nuts buying, they'll understand what's involved and that it can and likely will get done. For most people, it's a future that may or may not happen: most people don't buy futures (kickstarters aside...), they buy product. In current design, it's claimed it's not about User Interface, but User Experience (UX), where responding & tailoring to how users actually use - or want to use - their product or their competitors' product matters, instead of the engineers or marketers guessing and saying 'here it is, buy it'. But then their goal is "supposed" to be creating and getting to market a 'disruptive' product, that everyone will want...

I’d posit that the builder stopped making the clock that way because it wasn’t selling well.

If you want to buy 10 of them, I’ll *happily* add whatever DST and timezone support is required.
