2025-01-26 so it's 26.01. It's easy to look up. All you need to know is that the date goes YYY-MM-DD (year -> month -> day). You do the same thing when you write 26.01 instead of 26.01.2025, since you are just dropping information about the year.
Starting out with "you can't change my mind" is fine but then don't argue for your point with arguments that can easily be debunked. Use whichever format you like better but don't pretend that's more than personal preference at that point.
The big argument for the iso date-time format is lexicographic ordering. If you don't care about that, then don't use it.
Just as a side-note: some european countries were in fact considering switching to the iso date-time format but didn't because it would have been an inconvenience to people already familiar with different formats. Basically the "it's better but people prefer the older format" thing we have going on in the comment sections right now.
Cheers
The metric system has entered the chat.
I literally said I don't know what a thing means (and now that you've explained, it's a useless instruction to give me, since all it does is add extra steps for those of us already perfectly happy with the European format lmfao), and made no assertion beyond my personal preference, kindly get off your fucking high horse.
