Heck, even living in the US, I have to think about Central vs. Mountain and fallback to old network programming messages like "ER, at 10pm Eastern 9pm Central and Pacific" although these days, they've even shortened that to just mention Eastern and Pacific.. Not to mention even in the US we're quirky about when we observe (if we do) Daylight Saving Time, and how our observance matches that of the rest of the world, which makes using UTC offsets that much more important.
