- zer00eyz 3y agoGood question! My bet is this: Existing nonsense: Doesn't change much. Transition for all the badly set up systems... Y2K v2 baby! Cognitive overhead for Users, therefor Product and therefor Developers will be huge. I think a lot of the rage will be fendign off stupid and bad ideas more than anything else. Note: any one who deals with dates and deep history will have a chuckle and think nothing of it.
