Nest Hub really doesn't allow manual time zone?

I live near a time zone line, technically the Hub is correct about my time zone however since we work, shop, play etc. in the near time zone I need to have my Hub show the same time as every other device we own.  I thought about entering a fake address, but then the weather information will be incorrect.  Am I missing a setting somewhere on this Hub or in google home?  On my android phone and my windows devices I can manually set my timezone.

Unfortunately, Google Nest does not let us set our own time zone. They derive the time zone automatically from our home address. And, as some customers have reported in this forum for the last couple of years, the database Google Nest uses to determine the timezone has errors, so there are customers here and there all over the world who have incorrect time zones on their Nest Hubs. And Google Nest provides no way to correct the problem, except in one case in Mexico affecting an entire time zone district.

Well that's terribly unfortunate...  

Welp kinda makes this thing kinda pointless to an extent.  Already annoyed I can't adjust the tiles.  Disappointing piece of tech.
