I agree. I love when my dates sort fine as normal strings. It's easier to read too imo.

I've had my rant at someone already this year. A lawyer posting about legal documents saying "make sure you put all four digits in to avoid confusion" and the giving an example like 03/01/2020.
Sigh.

To be real, that might be a date format I would fire a lawyer over.

I've started using it as much as possible now. But I am but one man.
