I used to use this date format until I realized it's not really well designed for universal or permanent use since it counts years with a fictional birth as an approximate 0 mark

Now I prefer to count years from a meaningful point in time, like the UNIX epoch

Today's date with UNIX years is 055-05-20

The 2013-02-27 example becomes 043-02-27

As an atheist I fully support this!

I have yet to learn to count in block height... And that seems a bit impractical.

Even the Bitcoin blockchain uses plain old Unix timestamps if you want a reliable standard thing
