I changed the subject and removed PEP-495 from it because it is beyond the scope of PEP-495.

I don't think it is dead, but I think it is premature. There are plenty of improvements that we can bring to the datetime module while staying within the confines of POSIX interface to the system time zones. Along the way, we will certainly make the lives of tzinfo providers easier and hopefully one of the packages such as pytz will get to the point where PEP-431-bis will consist of one line: "Let's accept pytz into Python standard library."
