This.

I can handle DDMMYY[YY] it reads correctly. But YYYYMMDD is numerically correct, most signifcant to least significant digitwise.

That thing only American's do, is completely non-sensical.

It is sensical for one use:

"So when is the event?"
"May 20th, 2024"

It's such a niche use, though

I know you've been bashed already by others, but could you elaborate on why this is sensical?

In a, "Alright I guess that technically works and at least can follow the logic". It's pretty damn niche, however (who is going to ask for two or more years in advanced for a date and not go, "Just text/email it"? Heck, even this is pushing it, but I can at least follow the logic)

Could be that I'm slightly fucking up definitions in my head, it was a long day yesterday
