BC didn't get rid of it. Now it's permanent.

  They got rid of the biannual clock change, which is obviously what they're talking about.

  "Daylight Saving Time" refers to adjusting the time in a way that noon does not try to track solar noon for a timezone in order to shift daylight later in the clock-day.

  If we were trying to adjust the time to track the solar time, wouldn't we need to adjust the clocks every day as days get shorter/longer? I keep seeing this in every post discussing Daylight Savings. What's the obsession with tracking solar noon?

It's "Daylight Saving", not "Savings".
