Again, yyyy-mm-dd works as a compromise. Isn't that better than just one side winning over the other?
Yeah I saw your edits. I specifically don't like YYYY-MM-DD because it doesn't mimic spoken U.S. English though. :p
In regards to linguistics (verbal and written) I'm the kind of person who prefers that written conventions follow how speakers of a language use that language. Seeing conventions "contrived" like YYYY-MM-DD somewhat irks me. I just like the "natural" approach.

That's a big if though. I've got so many random reaction pictures and gifs that are just named after their hash
