IMO, the -n flag should still be accepted, but ignored, to provide
compatibility with anybody's old scripts or other automation that uses
date -n, since the new default behavior is exactly what the old -n flag
provided.

On the other hand, the fact that date(1) has failed to set the date for
about 3 months shows that it isn't a heavily-used command.
