Comment (by Otto42):

 Again, this update doesn't really change anything. WordPress has set the
 default timezone to UTC for 10 years.

 Here's the change when it was first introduced:
 https://core.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/12315

 If your code changes the default timezone, then it will break some of
 WordPress's date handling. This has always been the case for over 10
 years.
