Yes, I am unconcerned about the size - the date stamp changes on every ‘change’ to the schematic - even if there is actually no material change to the design. Adding an incidental file to the project, or even opening the project file is considered a ‘change’ and tracked by a change to the date and another possible conflict to resolve when nothing at all apart from the date has changed.
The date stamp is actually less important - when you annotate the components an annotation is ascribed to the power input to the circuit. If subsequent changes are made to the schematic, it is better that the power input to the network connection is recalculated. By rewriting the POWER flag to ‘unknown’ avoids these problems.
