I suspect a large number of users might choose PST if in California, when they really mean PST/PDT. Or perhaps in the summer they would semi-correctly choose PDT.

Choosing a large city you know shares your time zone does make things a bit more “human“.

This absolutely would happen. Most Americans I know refer to their timezone as EST/CST/MST/PST even after March.

    I’m currently working at one of the world’s largest consumer banks, and for a company that really should care about the accuracy of such things, I see “EST’ frequently all summer long.
