It is if you want to preserve the date to indicate something, like recording date or order. Metadata is probably better for that, but there may be programs which can't access or present that. Think file system listings. To come to a solution for this: Any other program "suffers" the same issue as ffmpeg, it has to do tricks to preserve the date. Better you do it from an OS perspective. Under Unix, it's easy: $ ffmpeg -i original_file.mov [...] new_file.mov $ touch -r original_file.mov new_file.mov (Using "-r", this tells touch to modify the date of "new_file.mov" using "original_file.mov" as a timestamp reference.)
