Comment:

 Hi there and thanks for opening this ticket.

 Unfortunately the GPT-written description is not really helpful and does
 not actually explain the suggested enhancement. Also, I recommend checking
 out
 https://make.wordpress.org/core/handbook/tutorials/trac/submitting-a-patch/
 to see how to create patch files for suggested changes. That makes it
 easier to see the difference and apply the change locally.

 From what I understand when looking at the code sample, you suggest using
 the configured `date_format` and `time_format` values for the "Daylight
 saving time begins on: %s" / "Standard time begins on: %s." sentences.

 I don't think that makes sense. `date_format` could be changed by the user
 to just show the year (`Y`), which would then make this sentence pretty
 useless because it's lacking the day & month.

 `date_format` and `time_format` in WordPress are not meant to be applied
 ''everywhere'' there is a date. They're mostly intended for the front end,
 and not the admin.

 As such, I am suggesting to close this as a ''wontfix''.
