> It’s pretty convenient as the time periods uses the format YYYY-MM-DD/YYYY-MM-DD and I think is easier to mentally parse than MM/DD/YYYY-MM/DD/YYYY Especially for those outside the USA!
As someone who grew up in the US, it's still bizarre as a programmer to have a mixed-significance ordering (MM-DD-YYYY) instead of any consistently-endian ordering (DD-MM-YYYY or YYYY-MM-DD). Out of curiosity, in what order do Europeans verbally say full dates with month names? Or does it vary by language?
Verbally in the same order as written in BrE - 22 June. (Historically '22nd inst. [instant]'.)
'June twenty-second' ordering verbally is as distanctly American (not to say you don't hear it, as with many Americanizms) as it is in writing.
