The strange behavior here in Excel is historical and Microsoft chose to keep
Excel compatible with Lotus 1-2-3 and MultiPlan at the beginning.

I don't think we care to burden date format portions of the api with tests for
these exceedingly rare cases.

If this does bother you then switch your Excel files over to "1904" date
format.

Please see the following:

Another alternative for you would be to simply set the cell as a number and
then apply a date format to it.
