[issue23517] datetime.utcfromtimestamp rounds results incorrectly

[STINNER Victor]

STINNER Victor added the comment:

> My opinions haven't changed:  nearest/even is unnatural for rounding times ("sometimes up, sometimes down" grates against the nature of monotonically non-decreasing timestamps),

By the way, why does Python use ROUND_HALF_EVEN for round()? It also feels unnatural to me!

>>> round(0.5)
0
>>> round(1.5)
2
