Well, I think a human would know from context that it was an abbreviation for 16:03 on 9th Dec 2007, and would know what time zone we were talking about,

That's the point which I was describing as "a reasonable argument".

which is all the info in that ISO date.

It may be in the ISO date, but the ISO date is not how an ordinary person would conceptualise that information.
