It seems like we want the "default" to be the simplest and fastest one we can support.
Exactly. Which is the count that the system C RTL returns when you ask it, normally claimed to be GMT or something very much like it. If the local system returns localtime, I can see adjusting to GMT or UTC, or whatever, as that ought to be a trivial transform. Past that libraries can deal with it.
