Am I not mistaken, but isn't this change going to make datetime calculation hell now; especially with legacy systems or am I missing something.

It might if the function is broken but 'time' as you think about it is usually stored referenced at UTC timezone and then converted.

Timezones then are stored in a database with the specific zone name and offset.

You have to convert to get time in the right timezone.

it's already hell, who cares.
