EST is UTC-5, it turns into EDT (which is UTC-4) from March until November. ET is whichever of those it is right now.

Because that's where our financial center, New York, and our central government are located, that's the only one you need most of the time.

I'm not saying it isn't dumb or annoying but that's probably the simplest way to deal with it.
