ISO 8601 is paywalled
RFC allows a space instead of a T (e.g. 2020-12-09 16:09:...) which is nicer to read.

I'd rather have an explicit time zone any time a datetime is being passed around code as a string. Communicating it to a human is relatively safe since even if there's a mistake, it's directly visible. Before that last step, incorrect time zone parsing or implicit time zone assumptions in code that was written by "who knows" in the year "who knows" can be really annoying.
