The moon makes the day longer by squeezing all the night juice out of the sky. Without night juice, there’s nothing to stop all that light from collecting all over everything everywhere.
Since it didn’t get answered, in case anyone is wondering, yes, the moon is ever so gradually slowing the Earth’s rotation due to the tidal forces of the two interacting with each other’s gravity, but in such small amounts (about 15 microseconds a year) that it’s not really noticeable.
