Thinking about it, parsing a time string with local time is ill-defined.
For example, in the Europe/Berlin timezone, the timestamp "2024-03-31
02:00:00" didn't exist (because 01:59:59 was followed by 03:00:00), and
"2024-10-27 02:00:00" has two solutions.

So I guess Universal Time is more reasonable as the default.
