Let's say you are asking the user what time zone he is in for some country:
Eastern Time Zone
Plains Time Zone
Mountain Time Zone
Other
Well I recall in expert mode installation, UTC is also always present:
Eastern Time Zone
Plains Time Zone
Mountain Time Zone
UTC
Other
Please also make it always present in non-expert mode too.
Some people would just like to give a neutral choice, and save the real
configuration for later after actual booting success.

Those people can use the expert mode. Or tweak the timezone after the
installation. No need to bother users by default with such a question
(there are plenty of countries where we don't even ask this question
anyway). Closing.
