Hi, I did consider the same and discussed within the python team, but tzdata does not have US/* timezones anymore (which apparently now is in the tzdata-legacy package) which pendulum uses. Having to depend on several packages and adding several workarounds does not seem really nice when there is a perfectly well upstream package that is made just for such usages, not to mention maintained by the python team itself. And as mentioned, zoneinfo from standard library itself seems to be making use of the python tzdata package (just what I found after going through the source code), so I believe there is value in having this in debian.
