to_timestamp produces a timestamp with time zone. Rotating that to a
timestamp without time zone is going to have strange behaviors at DST
boundaries. You probably really want to be storing timestamp with tz
anyway, given that you think the timestamps represent real time instants
;-)
Alternatively, why bother with to_timestamp at all? Given an
appropriate DateStyle setting, the native timestamp input data converter
is going to do just fine with this data format.
