Agree. I'd rather fix a timezone for all tests. Some tests don't happen to
set one; I know some use GMT elsewhere. Well, it's an issue for another day, to
standardize it if it causes enough pain at s

Oh, I see what you are saying, although I'm not sure I agree with the
conclusion. Given that tests can run in parallel I don't think you actually
want to toggle back and forth between timezones.

Yes, I got that, the problem is (potentially) in the _non_-SQL tests. If
nothing's failing today, probably is entirely fine in practice, but this could
have been made more robust while we're here.

They should extend a test that explicitly sets that if so, or else it only
happens to be set because of test ordering. The issue really is that it gets
set for all remaining tests not in SQL. That co

All the tests in SQL are written to assume `Los_Angeles`, so I think this
is actually desired. Otherwise people have to configure their machine
specially to run spark tests.

It may be a secondary point, but `QueryTest` should reset the timezone like
the code being removed does. Right now it means that the timezone default stays
changed for any other tests in the JVM.
