maintenance windows should be relative to the time zone the systems reside
in, otherwise a 2am window on the east coast, will become a 11pm job on
the west. It just isn't practical.

That was his point.  You can't take down one end of a link during a 2AM window
on the east coast and take the OTHER end down during a 2AM window on the west
coast.
