As RFC7231 explicitly requests GMT I'd even reject formatting a DateTime-object that has been set to UTC.

Quoting from RFC 9110#5.6.7:

An HTTP-date value represents time as an instance of Coordinated Universal Time (UTC).

In all fairness: It is really hard for me to take someone serious that is posting this:

And I am also quoting from RFC 9110#5.6.7

"The first two formats indicate UTC by the three-letter abbreviation for Greenwich Mean Time, "GMT", a predecessor of the UTC name;"

That is about the same as saying "Prices are indicated in Euro by the three-letter abbreviation for US-Dollar, 'USD', a predecessessor of the EUR name"

Anyhow! This is a technicallity that in most cases is irrelevant and does not invalidate the rest of the message

Cheers
