Why people convert São Paulo to AEST time

- Handling a +13h gap: São Paulo and AEST 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 AEST is 10:00 PM in São Paulo.

- Always state the zone abbreviation, not just the hour. "3:00 PM BRT" is unambiguous; "3 PM" across a +13h gap is not.
- With a +13h gap there is no shared 9-to-5 window, so alternate the early start: one week São Paulo takes the early slot, the next week AEST does.
