The two zones in context

UTC vs AFT — cities and working rhythm

UTC — Coordinated Universal Time
Primary cities: Reference clock — aviation, IT logs, science, distributed teams

UTC is the reference offset — not a civil timezone anywhere, but the standard for aviation ("Zulu time"), server logs, astronomy, and cross-timezone team calendars. When distributed engineering teams schedule "the daily standup at 15:00 UTC" they're dodging the DST-flip mess entirely.
