TIMESTAMPTZ is returned as string instead of Date object

It seems that drizzle upon initialization (re-)sets pg-types handling of dates. Usually pg-types and thus node-postgres converts TIMESTAMP, TIMESTAMPTZ and other related data base types automatically to a JS date object.

I tried Drizzle with the node-postgres driver and it didn't seem to work, dates were simply strings. I figured that Drizzle resets the default type convertes upon initialization (see picture).

I was wondering why that is. And is that simply a me problem or did anyone also find TIMESTAMP being returned as string when using node-postgres?
