"Daylight Savings" time never made sense. Why are we "saving daylight" when there's more of it?

Save it in the evening, it was always dark in the morning.
Historically we were saving daylight for the morning

We're saving it from the morning in the summer, when there's way too much of it while we're asleep, to use it in the evening, when we want to enjoy the outdoors with our families and friends after dinner.
The point is to increase the enjoyment of summer sunlight after the work day is over.
