Eugene Koifman commented on HIVE-16418:
---------------------------------------
It seems that storing TZ will cause more confusion than it's worth. I'm not
even sure it's a good idea to automatically convert UTC to local TZ. This
should be done by the application displaying the value or through an explicit
conversion/formatting SQL function. This way it's always obvious what the
default comparison/sorting is and what modifications to those operation any
particular query is requesting.
