I would absolutely love it if this were true.  In fact, I would go a step further and say that the whole concept of a "naive" datetime is simply a bug.  We don't have a "naive" unicode, for example, where it's text in some encoding but you decline to decide which one when you decode it, leaving that to the caller.

When we addresed this problem for ourselves at Divmod some time ago, naive=UTC is exactly what we did:
