I'm just wondering why sometime the code without the "\relax" command works.
The scanner is a program, it should process the input file always in the same
way, so what I have experienced sounds strange to me.
Can be that the explanation?
If \footerdate is starting with m (i.e. March 2025) the scanner reads the M as an input
for \hskip0.2em (the "minus" is looking for), if \footerdate is starting with a
different letter (i.e. J of June) the scanner is not confused and the process goes to the
end.
Have I got the point?
Sounds like it, we discussed the same problem already a few times.
