This issue https://github.com/xcat2/xcat-core/issues/4520 and associated PR https://github.com/xcat2/xcat-core/pull/4521 added the removal of the link. Perhaps the removal of the old link is ok, but instead of the "copy" we should "link" $rootimg_dir/usr/share/zoneinfo/$timezone[0]" and "$rootimg_dir/etc/localtime" ?

But do you think that removing the link is legit ? Also, I cannot really remove timezone attribute from site as it it used for stateful templates...
