The English word "breakfast" derives from idea of breaking the involuntary fast of sleep, thus signifying the first meal eaten after awakening.

Thats a good question. I work overnight and when I get home at 6am I usually eat something. I still call what I eat breakfast even though I suppose Its my dinner!

Hmmm I think when its WHEN you eat. Because if you wake up and eat pizza then you are eating pizza for breakfast. Oh and breakfast means to break the fast(ing) as in you dont eat while you sleep so when you wake up and eat you break the fasting.

Breakfast is anytime your body says your hungry. What difference does it make when you eat it? Shift workers eat when they awaken and the time isn't always 6:00 am is it?

I say time is your preference as is what you eat when it is time for you to refuel. If you want pizza for breakfast go for it...(blech!).

Implications can cause complications especially in turbulent times for those involved. Being that this is hardly the case with this respondent I will attempt to identify and clarify my perceptions as they pertain to your masterfully framed question.

Which is what?
