When converting a date from a part of the world that was not under the influence of the Roman Empire, such as Chinese or Mayan, is it really Wikidata's place to determine that it is more appropriate to convert to a Julian date rather than a Gregorian date? I think there are sufficient use cases for Gregorian dates earlier than 15 October 1582 that Wikidata should not disallow them or make them harder to use than Julian dates.
