Re:Glibc is still not Y2038 compliant by default by ak217 on Wednesday December 29, 2021 @12:17PM (#29726950)
This line of thinking is how we end up with nonsensical UX like having to select "America/Los Angeles" to get US Pacific time. There are many use cases for datetimes and timezones, not all of them need a location and in some cases it's incorrect or misleading to include a location. You could certainly use a UTC timestamp and coordinates in your application but that doesn't work for many other use cases.
