Timezone for datetime.date objects

Hi.

I'm working on a project where I need to query data for a given year, in
the correct timezone.  For accounting purposes.

The code I worked on today is here, see also the version history:

https://github.com/morphex/ethereum-classic-taxman/blob/main/generate_csv.py

I was initially using the date object to get the right timespan, but then
found that using the right timezone with that was a bit of a pain.  So I
went for the datetime object instead, specifying 0 on hour, minute and
second.

What's the thinking behind this with the date object?  Wouldn't it be nice
to be able to specify a timezone?

Regards,

Morten
