Their grammar is fine; it is their thinking that is sloppy (usually).
Actually, we argue about this in POG reasonably often, but there it's about what abbreviation to use. Those who use
EST when they mean daylight time fall into two camps: those who have not thought about it at all, and those who say they have but contend that
EST is clear in context and (for unarticulated reasons) somehow superior to
EDT.
