> regardless of my personal thoughts on ISO 8601 I think pointing to it as a silver bullet kind of misses the point. What is your point? Is it to not use MM/DD/YYYY format and avoid any concrete recommendation for disambiguation? Forgive my lack of acuity when missing your point. I may have been distracted by the dissonance between your evasive pedantry and your misuse of “ambivalent/ambivalence” when your semantic context calls for “ambiguous/ambiguity”.
