Why don't we return to normal Standard Time in early October instead of November?

Why don't we return to normal Standard Time in early October instead of November? Perhaps people would understand that it gets darker earlier and earlier until the Winter Solstice if time was changed on the previous month. For example, currently it's getting dark around 7 pm in my area. Now, 7 pm is really 6 pm on normal and healthy Standard Time. Some people often blame the time change from DST to normal time as the reason for the early evening darkness when that's not the truth. Of course, if we would have never changed to DST ever in the first place, I am sure no-one would have ever complained, or noticed. Time would just be normal, as it should be. Although the existence of time at all is another debate for science and philosophy.
