Why people convert Lima to SGT time

Scheduling a call from Lima to SGT: a 10:00 AM start in Lima lands at 11:00 PM in SGT, so you can confirm the slot without doing the arithmetic yourself.
Handling a +13h gap: Lima and SGT 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 SGT is 10:00 PM in Lima.
Keeping family and friends in sync: knowing that 8:00 PM in Lima is 9:00 AM in SGT makes it easy to avoid calling at 3 AM.

Always state the zone abbreviation, not just the hour. "3:00 PM PET" 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 Lima takes the early slot, the next week SGT does.
