We should just do a clean slate and say this year is 12775. 1. Accept AUC at face value with its potential mistakes as the most factual and secular year numbering scheme that goes back the furthest and with which we have the highest confidence that history has been written with. 2. Accept the AD year count since the last consuls at face value for easy compatibility with the iso calendar. 3. Merge the valuable contribution from the Holocene calendar.
