Timezone correction ban?

Description
Changed my timezone to GMT-5 because my headset was set to the wrong zone. Not even a minute after that, the anti-cheat gets me for "cheating".
Reproduction Steps
Just change your timezone in Meta Quest settings. I think I did it 2 times, and that's what flagged me.

WubTheCaptain given they're giving an in-game client report (so they probably won't see this), they probably did. Or they got an alt account.
But this would definitely be in the area of things you realistically shouldn't be banned for since what exactly are you cheating resynchronizing your clock. (Cheating in competitive gaming but on a social platform?)
Though technically this behavior is reproducible on PC, as I got kicked from the lobby for resynchronizing my clock some time ago.
But either way, whether VRChat is interested in looking into it or not is really up to them.
They have other issues they really should look into (such as the logging out issue has gotten worse recently, I got logged out a fraction of a second on the authorize canny page before I even got a chance to hit authorize and had to login again. Ugh.)
