Yes I know, but that doesn’t help pretty much any of our Python users that are all heavily reliant on Pandas and/or definitely not writing web services.

As of now, we just reject any timestamp without an explicit timezone and try to explain to our users why utcnow() is bad. People are generally very surprised that this issue exists at all.



Yeah naive datetime should not even exist in high level API IMO. They're like bytes string with no encoding or geospatial data without a projection name field.

It's going to bite you at some point.
