Aha, so with other words that ORM doesn't have that feature.
DBIX::Class also use the DateTime module, but it can use it directly,
without needing to write more code for that, and it can also return
localized dates.

Once again. ORMs return _python builtin type_. Localization is not
their responsibility, and plugging it there is code bloat, rather than
feature. Sure you may ask ORM to handle JSONRPC requests on its own,
but ORM responsibility is to map RDBMS features to language objects.

Who said that? The ORM responsability is to map RDBMS to the objects you need, not to the language objects. If the ORM can do that directly by just adding a configuration instead of needing to manually use of other modules, why is this bloat? You add that configuration only if you need it, not always, and it is much more simple.

All good python packages limit their functionality to specific field,
so you could choose one you prefer for each different task
independently.


All the Perl modules do the same, but some of the Perl modules accept plugins that make easier the collaboration of different modules which are needed often, and the need of localizing the date is a feature used often.

without needing to load the DateTime module manually and to initialize the DateTime object manually...

This is basically stating that you didn't read the code I posted.
Where did you ever find "initialize the DateTime object manually"?
Sorry, but its pointless to discuss anything if you don't want to even
read properly examples you receive.


You told that you need to use another module for localizing the date because the ORM returns just a language date object that doesn't do that.
