In fact these datetime "objects" are just a different type of string:

{ts '2005-06-14 23:30:11'}

create datetime objects.

When you say that these create datetime objects, do they only create
correct-formatted date/time strings or is there an actual object
underneath?

If there is an object can't you do something like:

<cfset myDate = now()>

<cfoutput>#myDate.hour()#</cfoutout>

If you can't do that sort of stuff, then I would assume that CF just
passes "strings" as date/time objects.
