These methods use `yearField()`, `monthField()`, `dayField()` to decode the real number from the representation. I think it should be OK. I did not understand actually why it should provide: > if _year is a leap year, is there a guarantee that _year + kMaxYear is also a leap year? Or do I miss some other leap year checks done in the code?
