Never realized before this puzzle that the AM/PM conventions were so weird.
The transitions …, 11AM, 12PM, 1PM, … and …, 11PM, 12AM, 1AM, … don’t make sense at all.
I wonder why they didn’t they use the following conventions: NOON = 0PM, MIDNIGHT = 0AM?

Because traditionally zero was not considered a proper number. (See: 1 BC followed by 1 AD…)

Neither 1 by Euclid himself.
True. This was one of the reasons for me to create the puzzle. Based on a real-world situation I was thinking that was so confusing that could be a puzzle itself. But I wanted to add a little more with backward delay calculations.
