Making it work

The shared window is the morning in Tokyo and four hours long, so it is worth protecting. Put recurring calls inside it and move anything that only one side needs outside it.

Offer two or three times within the window rather than one. Someone always has a clash, and a poll with three options settles in a day where a single proposal starts a thread.
