We call standard time winter time here. I just complained about it to my wife yesterday, that we are NOT switching to winter time. We are switching back to standard time.
It’s not weird considering that historically it has been the standard time and only later the daylight saving time idea (aka summer time) was introduced. Plus on the equator you don’t really need them as such and on the southern hemisphere they’d be the opposite.
Yes, we should stay at winter time.

Winter time is when the clock is set back one additional hour, ie -2h when compared to Summer Time (a.k.a. Daylight Saving Time).

But everybody calls it winter time.
It’s weird that it’s standard time considering more of the year is spent in summer time.
