Comment:

 From looking at the code it seems `post_date_gmt` will be prioritized in
 input so effectively it doesn't matter what app sends for `post_date`.
 Probably fine.

 Think the place where offset doubles down is indeed the place #30429 was
 pointing out, so this seems to be a duplicate, I'll continue there.

 No idea why it was working in 5.2, likely some (common case) of multiple
 wrong behaviors cancelling each other out. Some of that got affected by
 things getting ''fixed'' in 5.3.
