The issue is that it does. It uses strtotime() to parse them, and it returns a
non-error value for both "100000 years" (on 64-bit systems, apparently) and "a
potato" (don't ask me why).
It should probably check for values over the database 'int' type capacity and
earlier than today. But this bug covers that.
