+This strategy merges timezones that have agreed on timekeeping methods since the year 1970. This results in a reduced set of timezones, simplified timezone polygons and smaller storage footprint. This variation should mostly align with those timezones listed in the [zone1970.tab](https://github.com/eggert/tz/blob/main/zone1970.tab) file within the timezone database project. However, the [@tubular/time](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@tubular/time) library is used to determine which zones get merged together from the comprehensive variation. The output of the zones from the comprehensive method are combined together for all relevant zones with the zone having the largest city population being used for the `tzid` of the merged zone in the final output.
