What about the name for the third offset each year? The UK used to use three offsets during the year. I'm sure it was not alone. I'm certainly not sure that it won't happen again.
So if we have three flavors of time per year, with different names/abbreviations/offsets, that would require a POSIX API change, and changes to other time-related APIs that have an assumption that, within a year, there is, at most, winter time and summer time.
