If you are not familiar with the cryptic names of POSIX but live in normal world, time.daylight sounds like a quite probable place where to check if the daylight savings are active. That's why I think the help text should explicitely note it has other meaning. You should try to think like a person that does not have any background knowledge of underlying libraries but just looks through the time library trying to solve the question - how can I check if my machine uses daylight savings now.
