Wouldn’t it just make sense to define a given hour as UTC 00:00 and then reference that ONE time when communicating? As it stands, were just giving every single time zone two or three different names for seemingly no merit

The + or – is the difference in hours from utc. Locations may have different names for them like Eastern, Central, Mountain, Pacific, or Hawaii-Aleutian in the US. However they change their difference from utc based on daylight saving time.
Eastern Time in the US is UTC-4 during daylight saving time and UTC-5 during standard time.
