      reproduce-by:

      • turn on UTC and local time display
      • select some point in time, note both displayed values
      • shift the time selector just a little bit to the left or right
      • see the time difference jump by an hour

      here's an example - correct time difference (2hrs):

      this is wrong: it's 2hrs delta here, not 3:

      makes one a bit unsure which one of times displayed is the correct one

          Thanks, Petra!

          while I have your ear:

          a public issue tracker (e.g. github) would be useful, if only to avoid multiple reporting and for reference

              The local time is rounded to the nearest hour. This is more correct.
              The Zulu time hour is floored.
              So in the last half of the hour, the times differ.
