The database has a table with separate date and time columns.
1. Are there benefits to merging the two into a single timestamp column?
1) One less column to fetch from.
2) If you really need a timestamp the work is already done, instead of
building on the fly.
2. If so, how would I do this? (Reading date/time operators and functions

select ('10/19/2025'::date + '07:50'::time)::timestamptz;
timestamptz

Should have added in previous post, the above assumes your current date

TIA,
