What if ...
...the earth were flat. Then everyone would have been in the same timezone. That would have saved watchmakers the extra pain of designing additional mechanisms to adjust the hour hand.
...the Indian legislators pass a law making the user of the term "Car" illegal. All cars should be known as RPUs - Road Polluting Units. And the usage of this word would be mandatory in all adverts for RPUs. So you would have car advertisements screaming - "Brand New Road Polluting Unit from Suzuki"
...a law is passed to disconnect all phone numbers printed on any unauthorized advertisement within 24 hours. (These unauthorised advertisements appear all the time - in train compartments, on compound walls, etc.) If the phone numbers were to be disconnected, that would be a big incentive not to mess with public space. Of course, the number should be reconnected once there is physical evidence that the condition of the wall or public space has been restored to original.
