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).
