At first I thought the same... but the MM/DD/YYYY picker ONLY displays if you pick the year that says you're 12 or 13. If you are over 13, you will never see this date picker/form fields.

Entering YMD (#1) on mobile is out of the question. Unbelievably terrible with keyboards, Swype, auto-complete, etc. I could be convinced that #2 without the day field (what do we care? round!) is worth it. But maybe we just go for a larger year range. #3 is a lot of effort for a really small win. In general, my political features are not unduly ruffled by denying folks in the cusp year access.
