  3. For a space colony not tied to the actual day (like a habitat floating in orbit) that might make a lot of sense. When we don't have to take the sun into consideration the only remaining factor we need to keep in mind when designing a calendar is the human body's circadian rhythm - so we'd still need to use "days" of around 24 hours length. But that's just approximately 24 hours. People who live underground with no natural light sometimes shift to a 25 hour "day," so that may be more optimal.
