Is the idea to have longers days or shorter hours? Eitherway: why?

The funny part is 24 and 60 are already great numbers to base your time system on. They're both very divisible which means you can divide up the day or hour into halves, thirds, and quarters without dealing with fractional time periods. It would remove a practical aspect of time keeping to no benefit.

So maybe divide the 26h day into 24 time units or make the day not 26h but 60h
