Seems like a lot of anglo standards and measurements are done to make everything as illogical and confusing as possible. NASA wrecked a Mars robot entry over imperial unit conversions iirc.
ISO8601 makes the most sense: general to specific, year-month-day, and it sorts on computers well too. I forget which countries use that general to specific format, I think Chinese language does tho.
