Daylight Saving Time was introduced before electricity was in use. It's primary implementation was to save candles by shifting people's waking hours. There is no actual affect on the amount of time that passes. It is simply a practical shift in the numbers that we assign to the hours of the day. Really, it 'shifts' our experience of daylight, it doesn't 'save' it. But wouldn't it be strange if we called it Daylight Shifting Time?

No. There are always 24 hours in a day. However, daylight savings time (in theory, at least) provides us with more usable daylight for work and play.
