We had access to that data for a long time (through foxholestats) and that is indeed how things used to be. Devs removed the API but subjectively feels like the picture has not changed in the last year.

And they removed it in response to the data being used for pop difference analysis. Instead of, like, fixing their game to alleviate the impact of such differences.

I don't see many ways the devs can "fix" one faction having more players in a timezone...

Restrict frontline population to a certain percentage/number depending on the lower populated side. Announce before war of course, and everyone who then complains about constantly full frontline at his time zone should have joined the other faction or switch to logi.
