While I prefer YYYY-MM-DD, too (and where is MM-DD-YYYY used, anyway?
Isn't that usually written as MM/DD/YYYY or MM.DD.YYYY?), it doesn't
make a difference here: The string is converted to a date type, and
then two date values are compared. That one of them was computed from a
string is irrelevant.
