What I understood you to be referencing is what happens without
string(), which AFAICS does not result in any timezone rotation:
regression=# set timezone = 'America/New_York';
SET
regression=# select jsonb_path_query('"2023-08-15 12:34:56-09"', '$.timestamp_tz()');
jsonb_path_query
-----------------------------
"2023-08-15T12:34:56-09:00"
(1 row)
I think I'd be content to have string() duplicate that behavior
--- in fact, it seems like it'd be odd if it doesn't match.
