Calling hogwash on this one. Is it more important that an event took place in 1992, or that it took place on the 12th?
How often do you use the year when talking about dates? Does your boss say "i need this done by 2023-12-22"? For day to day use, the day is the most relevant info. The year and even the month is often implied.
For day to day use within the current month the day is the most important detail. Outside of that, it's largely irrelevant.
