I agree with this as you've stated it, but there's a difference with a personal event, like an alarm, and a calendar event. For instance, say there's an 1pm CT meeting every Tuesday for a remote team. When I head to the East Coast for a week, that _should_ mean 2pm ET, but if the assumption is "1pm when I'm there", since the "there" has changed if my calendar doesn't adjust accordingly I'm going to be an hour early to the meeting.

This has happened to me numerous times. I set up an appointment in Outlook assuming I'll be there remotely via webconference and then end up having to travel there in person. I've been bitten enough times to double-check the timezone now, but that was a hard-earned lesson that most calendars tend to use the timezone the appointment was created in unless explicitly told otherwise.
