Thats the same reason I gave a really crappy company for leaving too. Not saying it’s the exact same situation, but just wanted to point out that people sometimes lie to protect their place in their profession.

English people say October 5th. Spanish people say 5 de Octubre. Same for other languages. That’s probably why Europeans prefer the other format.
You could convince a group of people to use YYYYDDMM, but what I mean is nobody currently uses it. So at this moment of time YYYYMMDD is intuitive, and has a miniscule chance of being mixed up like DDMMYYYY and MMDDYYYY (because a large number of people use these formats).
Please don’t convince Americans to use YYYYDDMM lol. :-)
DDMMYYYY would be great, if it weren’t for 95% of Americans that use MMDDYYYY. Is 07/02/2000 July 2nd or Feb 7th?
Thus the only solution is to write out the month or start with the year, because no logical group of people currently use YYYYDDMM. Plus by using YYYYMMDD you get the added benefit of the dates all being sortable using dumber applications.
Boomers got more conservative as they grew older because they’ve been eating shovels of propaganda since reagan and never learned how to fact check like younger generations
