Yeah, it's awful
In the same vein, they often do like'
"On the weekend of 413...."
4 meaning 2024, and week 13
That seems like such a obtuse way of mentioning the exact day
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Date_format_by_country
The ISO 8601 format YYYY-MM-DD (2024-02-23) is intended to harmonize these formats and ensure accuracy in all situations. Many countries have adopted it as their sole official date format, though even in these areas writers may adopt abbreviated formats that are no longer recommended.
Too bad there are still many countries who don't follow ISO's recommendation.
