I commented on the other post about how timezones bit me, continue to bite me even though I do everything in UTC now, and will probably bite me again in the future.

I also like that she’s able to reproduce it but I feel like this should have been a test check in the distro to ln the US zones as to not mess up older codebases.

In the end, standardizing is the right way to go. If you’re a maintainer, think about adding tests and checks for files that if moved might break things that depend on it. Maybe a service that watches for fd access to those and gives a warning, I don’t know what the best approach would be but it would be nice to have something at the user land level that said “Ahh ahh ahhh, you didn’t say the magic word”
