> I think I can say this on behalf of most developers who have ever had to fix DST errors in their code: Thank fucking god.

I think it just means for all American developers it's _more_ likely they'll introduce bugs if they cater to an international audience and there's still countries with DST.

DST has always been a good way to get Devs to think about the timezone database. If people start relying on offsets more that's not a net good thing, until the entire world is done with DST.
