Perhaps it would be instructive to think about why the server's local
time is of any interest?
My guess would be that it's to answer questions like "how long do I have
before that cron job starts?" or "how long ago did that daemon log this
warning?", which AFAICS are, as Stef says, about the local time the
server thinks it has, and not about the local time that the client
thinks the server should have.
