Yes, but the Microsoft C runtime doesn't use that interface, and it is
currently the C runtime that we use to implement strftime. This could change,
but that's an enhancement. See issue 3173 for example.

Uh? But that's completely besides the point. Windows provides timezone offset
information in a different way than Linux does (through the Registry) but it's
still available. It's trivial to do in .NET for example:
Console.WriteLine(TimeZone.CurrentTimeZone.GetUtc
R. David Murray added the comment:
That's a platform peculiarity. See issue 20281.

New submission from dendory:
Using `%z` gives the same result as using `%Z` in `time.strftime()`:
