Why should I ignore the only tag that DT actually takes into account ?
As this is the one DT reads to display the information, why would I have to let
it wrong when I could modify it and have DT display the correct value ?
I know it is possible to specify an offset value from within DT, but this will
be lost as soon as the database is reset and/or the sidecar is erased.
How will I remember, say, 6 months later, that some peculiar photos were shot
with wrong date / time value ?
Well, you won't, you use a computer to do that for you.
Long ago, I found out that it is much more efficient to have the exif
time stamp as filename, as it will not chance no matter which program
you use to work on a picture.
It also has the advantage that when you take pictures with different
cameras at the same location you get easily just from the file name the
chronological order.
So, after I have corrected (if necessary) exif "DATe and Time original"
I have renamed all pictures using the exif information to
yyyymmdd_HHMMSS_plus_whatever.xyz
