Hi spaceman,
as an arg to scan (either via -format or -form) whether numeric
dates are printed as D/M (the sane way) or M/D (stupid).
It might be pure opinion but I don't think M/D is "stupid" when put in
context for example:
YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS
2019-05-18T23:43:15
But M/D's context is not ISO, it is M/D/Y, and that's stupid. It
predates the ISO format you mention in its defence by quite some time.
It's like an inverse medal-winner's podium. D/M's context is D/M/Y and
that's a more sane. Y/M/D obviously sorts better thus ISO.
