If this new 'strict' support still has buggy behaviour around time shifts,

Because the new 'strict' way of dealing with timezones and datetime
arithmetics will become our "gold standard" and we will not tolerate
buggy behavior even in the corner cases?

I have no doubt that adding and subtracting strict dt's will behave 
appropriately.

I just also think that part our "gold standard" is refusing the temptation to 
guess what the result should have been when handed a non-strict dt that is either 
ambiguous or non-existent.
