Yes, and others are criticized for using the same shorthand.
Everyone knows it is actually a numerical value. We get that. Doesn't
change a thing I have said.

Yes, could have been, but it is *not* something else. And if aunt had
balls, then they would be uncle. However, I think we should focus on how
things actually are.
IE date is numerical value corresponding to UTC. And the majority of the
relevant functions use localization as well as your system clock, which
makes this not so handy.

Are we finally at the same page?
