Yes, MM DD YY only makes sense when you’re speaking.
In written language it should always follow the order of smallest to largest, meaning day, month, and then year. Imo.
Though I personally try to use YYYY-MM-DD as much as possible in day to day life, if not applicable I use DD MM YYYY. YYYY-MM-DD of course doesn’t follow the order of smallest to largest, instead following the opposite order, though at least it has an order.
Largest to smallest is way more logical than smallest to largest. You start general and get more specific as you progress. It is in genderal a better approach to conveying information and cataloging data. Not just dates.
When does saying the month first ever help when you’re speaking? The month doesn’t change for like 30 days. The only thing that matters is dd which changes daily. If someone asks me what the date I’ll give them the day date and nothing else.
I don’t need to say it’s the 9th and watch them panic that maybe it’s January.
You are objectively wrong.
