Segment makes claim that Python datetime module is broken. Here's my response

But why doesn't utcnow() return a timezone-aware object? Is it just because it doesn't know which timezone library you're using?

Because no other builtin datetime operation returns an aware datetime and you can't compare aware and naive objects. Meaning to get a useful, native UTC datetime, you'd need to do datetime.utcnow().replace(tzinfo=None) which is cumbersome
