. . .

So, you are saying that the modern aarch64 Windows 11 on a system
that has an RTC would be based on storing UTC in the RTC, even for
booting Windows 11?

[I dual boot a Windows DevKit 2023 with Windows 11 (presupplied
internal media) and with FreeBSD (external USB3 media). Imagine
that it had a RTC to make the question relevant.]
