Why people convert Prague to Dubai time

Scheduling a call from Prague to Dubai: a 10:00 AM start in Prague lands at 12:00 PM in Dubai, so you can confirm the slot without doing the arithmetic yourself.
Finding shared working hours: both Prague and Dubai are inside the 9-to-5 working day between 9:00 AM and 3:00 PM CEST time (11:00 AM–5:00 PM GST). That is roughly 6 hours of usable overlap.
