Why people convert Edmonton to AEST time

Scheduling a call from Edmonton to AEST: a 10:00 AM start in Edmonton lands at 2:00 AM in AEST the next day, so you can confirm the slot without doing the arithmetic yourself.
Handling a +16h gap: Edmonton 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 1:00 AM in Edmonton.
Keeping family and friends in sync: knowing that 8:00 PM in Edmonton is 12:00 PM in AEST makes it easy to avoid calling at 3 AM.

Always state the zone abbreviation, not just the hour. "3:00 PM MDT" is unambiguous; "3 PM" across a +16h gap is not.
With a +16h gap there is no shared 9-to-5 window, so alternate the early start: one week Edmonton takes the early slot, the next week AEST does.
