Why people convert MSK to Auckland time

Scheduling a call from MSK to Auckland: a 10:00 AM start in MSK lands at 8:00 PM in Auckland, so you can confirm the slot without doing the arithmetic yourself.
Handling a +10h gap: MSK and Auckland have no overlap inside a normal 9-to-5 day, so real-time meetings need an early-morning or late-evening slot on one side. 9:00 AM in Auckland is 7:00 PM in MSK.

Always state the zone abbreviation, not just the hour. "3:00 PM MSK" is unambiguous; "3 PM" across a +10h gap is not.
With a +10h gap there is no shared 9-to-5 window, so alternate the early start: one week MSK takes the early slot, the next week Auckland does.
