Yikes. Can that be actually put into English?
I've read thru it, and the only thing I can come away is that 'if UTC,
then offset is required, and it can be anything from -23 to +23,
including your example 0 meaning no offset from UTC.
As it now reads, theres a ton of ambiguity that needs further
clarification.
