 PHP's documentation defines the P character as follows:

 "P      Difference to Greenwich time (GMT) with colon between hours and
 minutes         Example: +02:00"

 However in django, P() appears to be implemented as
 "Time, in 12-hour hours, minutes and 'a.m.'/'p.m.', with minutes left off
         if they're zero and the strings 'midnight' and 'noon' if
 appropriate.
         Examples: '1 a.m.', '1:30 p.m.', 'midnight', 'noon', '12:30 p.m.'
         Proprietary extension."

 For example:

 {{{
 DateFormat(self.created_on).format("F jS Y, h:ia P")
 }}}

 returns "March 5th 2023, 08:44a.m. 8:44 a.m." when it should return "March
 5th 2023, 08:44a.m. -05:00"
