@MuseumShuffle@mastodon.social Thanks for the well-presented talk on a very painful subject!
I am compelled to decry the use of numeric dates that are not in year-month-day order—the only unambiguous order for numeric date components. As specified in ISO 8601: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_8601
To do any other order requires making the date non-numeric by using a text month name (which has the problem of being restricted to a single language/locale).

@wtfSwiftUI@iosdev.space I do use ISO 8601 for storing the selected date but I let the system handle how dates are displayed to the user.
