Colin: Synchronising the system time does not cause time zone difficulties. I use manual time to work around a bug in Evolution/Thunderbird/etc. And the purpose of my previous post was to give an example of "why manual time should be preferred for any case other than a complete lack of internet connectivity", because the previous poster suggested that time synchronisation is strictly better than manual time.
