Why people convert Chile to PKT time

Scheduling a call from Chile to PKT: a 10:00 AM start in Chile lands at 6:00 PM in PKT, so you can confirm the slot without doing the arithmetic yourself.
Handling a +8h gap: Chile and PKT 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 PKT is 5:00 PM in Chile.
Keeping family and friends in sync: knowing that 8:00 PM in Chile is 4:00 AM in PKT makes it easy to avoid calling at 3 AM.

Always state the zone abbreviation, not just the hour. "3:00 PM CLST" is unambiguous; "3 PM" across a +8h gap is not.
With a +8h gap there is no shared 9-to-5 window, so alternate the early start: one week Chile takes the early slot, the next week PKT does.
