The problem with this idea is that while evaluating 
datetime.datetime.now(datetime.timezone()), python will have to query the real 
time clock twice (first in timezone() and then in now()).  At a particularly 
unfortunate time this may result in an error.  Unlikely? Yes, but I would not 
board a python powered airplane if this problem was in the standard library.

I gave a lot of thought to the problem of supporting timezone aware local time 
and issue9527 was the best solution I was able to come up with.
