Turns out it as their own devices they wanted to push updates to.

I’m pretty sure that’s an example of why you should use the chosen ones instead of going “mancy/nancy” all over the place.

Also, didn’t they just make a standard for themselves and other just took it because it was probably easier than making one for their own language (oh right, NATO… but let’s be honest here, NATO is just a forum for America to flaunt its power while PR-ing peaceful, so it makes sense they use English, which is also easier to be a second language than most other ones).
Though I feel like China might have made their own.

I switched to it in my later teens when I realised how many cases it would be better in.
Conversion during conversation might be an extra step, but I’ll be pushing for the next generation to have this by default.

Also, much better when using for file names.

Also, YYYY-MM-DD. There’s a reason why it is the ISO
