What libraries? I'm honestly interested to know which ones you refer to.

The most similar to this are Arrow and Delorean, maybe Django timezone if you use Django.

So, basically, you haven't read any of my comments. Arrow is really flawed see https://pendulum.eustace.io/faq/#why-not-arrow and Delorean is not as complete feature-wise as Pendulum. Both of these libraries do not handle properly shifting time around DST transition times which is a big flaw in itself beacause it's not accurate.
