Maybe I’m weird but I’ve always liked the early sunsets. The long evenings can be cozy. On the flip side I’ve always enjoyed the super late sunsets on the opposite side of the year too. I enjoy dynamism when it comes to daylight length throughout the year. To me it would be strange living at a lower latitude where daylight length and sun angle are more uniform year round. I realize this is just personal preference though.
To simplify it, the poleward transport of westerly momentum (culminating as a stronger/poleward northern jet) can “abandon” components of middle latitude waves. Which under certain wavenumbers (and other seasonal boundary conditions) can guide those waves into a state of quasi-resonance and/or amplifying constructive interference.
The timing of all elements has to be absolutely perfect for an outcome like June 2021. The probability of that happening is so low that it almost never happens.
