Agreed, the Chrome datepicker has been there for some time and is atrocious. I get a point for no styling: they can be made to feel native, e.g on iOS they're good but the Chrome ones simply are not.

Indeed, but I see another advantage: what this will give us is UI<->data normalization, as third party pickers will have a tendency to converge towards the standard in terms of data handling so as to act properly as fallbacks to the standardized way.
