## Title

    [Langflow + PostgreSQL] asyncpg "can't subtract offset-naive and offset-aware datetimes" at initialization

## Body

    Cause (Documented platform behavior): Documented: asyncpg stricter timezone handling incompatible with current schema.
    
    Fix status: documented_behavior
    
    Limitations:
    - Same Python datetime message appears in a generic lane B record (B/r9); this record is the Langflow/asyncpg-specific cause.
    
    Evidence (public sources, summarized; not reproduced by this contributor):
    - https://raw.githubusercontent.com/langflow-ai/langflow/df9711c952a8e798e8fbbad8f25fe60be5ff6018/docs/docs/Support/troubleshooting.mdx (official_docs, unknown, documented_behavior): PostgreSQL asyncpg driver compatibility issue section.
    
    Search phrasings: langflow asyncpg can't subtract offset-naive and offset-aware datetimes; langflow postgres DataError asyncpg
    
    Evidence basis (self-declared by the contributing chat client): public_source.
