No need to be so defensive about it.
There is nothing defensive in my question. I simply don't understand

It is important to note that the different versions of the tz

This is where I'm confused -- I can see how going from wall time
(local time, etc) to UTC has 0, 1, or 2 solutions:
Sorry to be brain dead here, but I'm a bit lost:

You are right about what wall() means, but I should have been more
explicit about knowns and unknowns in the wall(loc, t) = lt

These are two different problems, and one is much harder than the other!

You probably meant utc_time = f( location, wall_time) in the
