The story behind it is amazing as well it's been around forever but implicated during WWI The History of Daylight Saving Time

Ante and post meridian are wrong because they are incorrectly formed Latin.

How do I know ante and post meridiem are correct? Well they are correct Latin for a start. However, if you want a definitive answer, look here.

What's (in)correct is your opinion. It is fully acceptable in the US to use meridian, meaning half way. Also, 6 is also a half dozen, same thing.

You're confusing "meridian" with "median"
