But the claim I was trying to make still stands: that YYYY-MM-DD is easily available in OpenOffice, although it is not what most users will see at first when they use Insert | Fields > | Date.

It would be very helpful if you could tell us just where and how to make this setting in OOo3. I can’t find it.

From the help file, search "date";

"Date
Inserts the current date as a field. The default date format is used, and the date is not automatically updated.

"To access this command...
Choose Insert - Fields - Date

"If you would like to define a different date format, or have the date updated automatically, select Insert - Fields - Other to insert a field command and make the desired settings in the Fields dialog. The format of an existing date field can be modified at any time by choosing Edit - Fields."

I could not find how to change the default other than changing language 
preference.
