The dateTime entry in a wee_import field map is a special case. Whereas for other field map entries the mapped field is imported (and converted if necessary) from the specified units, the dateTime source field actually undergoes separate processing to derive the timestamp that is ultimately used as the dateTime entry. I appreciate the explanation of the field map in the Utilities Guide is somewhat misleading. Consequently, I have added a clarifying note to the CSV [[FieldMap]] stanza in the Utilities Guide. Since there are other changes to the Utilities Guide that are only applicable to the next WeeWX release, the note I added will appear when the next WeeWX release is published.
