Ah thanks, that confirms my theory of why the location is required to parse time zone names like PST. Offsets are probably going to be fine for recorded timest

Ah thanks, that confirms my theory of why the location is required to parse time zone names like PST. Offsets are probably going to be fine for recorded timestamps, if all you need is the absolute time that the timestamp represents. But yeah, timezones make things so complicated that there is no one true solution I guess.
