Describe the bug / error

I have observed that changing the time zone of the computer changes the value retrieved by the getDate operator and also retrieves a different value than the date in the date column.

Steps to reproduce

Setting up a list for verification

  1. Create a date column with the internal name Date in the list
  2. Set any date in the column created in step 1
  3. Create a column to display the values retrieved by the getDate operator
  4. Set the following JSON to the column formatting created in step 3
{
  "$schema": "https://developer.microsoft.com/json-schemas/sp/v2/column-formatting.schema.json",
  "elmType": "div",
  "txtContent": "=getDate([$Date])"
}

Change computer time zone

  1. Change computer time zone from UTC+09:00 to UTC-09:00 image

  2. When the list is reopened, the value obtained with the getDate operator is not the same as before the time zone change, and is different from the date in the date column image

Expected behavior

The getDate operator returns the date of the referencing date sequence without being affected by the computer's time zone.
