As long as the subject has been introduced, do all MD units ... and the TOC
of an MD itself ... store the year as two digits under the assumption that it
is in the range 1990-2089?

The MDS-W1 displays a four-digit year, but when you set the current date the
year must be within that range.  When the MDS-JE520 calculates a day of the
week, it seems to assume that the year is within that range.  (I have some
trashed TOC entries on the very first disc I recorded, and some dates set by
the MZ-R3 have been mangled to 2013 or 2070.)

Of course we have to get through Y2K and Y2038 first, and neither the MD
harware I own in 1999 nor I will be around in 2090.
