That does sound useful.

org-date is but a thin wrapper around diary-date.  Thus you should plead
your case to the core Emacs developers instead of the org-mode ones.

Canceled.

That being said I did find a fun workaround you might like.  We can use
`diary-offset' to subtract a number of days from a date.  So in this
example I subtract 5 days from February 1st to get the 4rth last day of January.

#+begin_src org
,* test event
<%%(diary-offset '(org-date 2026 02 01) -5)>
#+end_src
