Dave was allowed a correct response early in the show for “Daylight Savings Time” whereas the correct phrase should be without the final s in Savings. Would not have made a difference because he won handily, but if the show wants to be technically correct, they should have pointed that out.
https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/daylight%20saving%20time
“called also daylight saving, daylight savings, daylight savings time, daylight time”
Per the rules of the show, the fact that a reputable source (such as Merriam-Webster) gives the alternate term “daylight savings time” means that the show is obliged to accept it as correct when given by a contestant.
