Because it's not UTC.

If user wants UTC, then he "select current_timestamp at time zone 'utc'
from rdb$database;".

So user has all the options, including have a proper client "installed".

He may also do not use fbclient to format (convert from/to ts to string)
or convert (with/without timestamp) and uses others ways. Then icu is
also not required (non-fbclient will do that).
