@AlisonW @twostraws as Douglas Adams would say, that's Somebody Else's Problem 😁 Ease of coding should never trump usability IMH(and not at all well informed)O :)

The format mmddyy has ZERO usability though, perfectly demonstrated by the number of countries globally which use it.

@AlisonW @twostraws mmddyy makes my brain hurt. I acknowledge part of this is what you're used to but at least ddmmyy has smallest unit of measurement first and would logically be preceded with a time if you were making a date. :) I wonder if Americans say let's meet on January 12, 2pm, 2023 🤔
