And the only time they use the proper date format is their national holiday.

If you mean dd-mm-yyyy instead of mm-dd-yyyy, I’d agree it’s superior. That said, other countries have us both with their fully ISO compliant yyyy-mm-dd standard.

I prefer yyyymmddhhmmss.

Best for record keeping.

Who certifies the "proper" format? Im fairly sure it isnt dd-mm-yy

The US date format makes sense in the US. In a culture where days blur together endlessly in an endless slog of creating value for shareholders, the month is more important information than the day.

Which one? There are many national holidays.
