I don't think I ever needed something like that... Since most cases don't need local time zone, why not keep two separate fields?

It's a delimited string. There are many fields within that string already.

    "2025-07-10T09:48:27+01:00"
That contains, by my quick glance, at least 8 fields of information. I would argue the one field it does not carry but probably should is the _name_ of the timezone it is for.
