I think the signalling equilibrium works. People with high-quality fresh articles put the date on to gain a temporary advantage, so now when I see an article that doesn't have a date, I become suspicious that means it is old. Like no GPA or graduation date on a resume, it isn't fooling anyone.

Do people actually put their college GPA on a resume?

  Not consistently (thankfully). Don't, if you're not asked.

    Why can that be a bad idea? (I'm not in or from the US and a bit clueless)

      It is not a realistic predictor of how well folks will do in an actual job.

        Sources? I imagine toiling away at bullshit academic tasks will have some weak positive correlation with job performance.

I've never put GPA in an application, and never even imagined doing so. I don't think I've seen GPAs in most professional applications. It's different if you're applying to a university, or you're right out of college, I guess.
