Jc3s5h added a comment.
An additional issue with borrowing the format from ISO 8601 (without using the definitions from ISO 8601) is that that standard requires a fixed number of digits for the years. So if the age of the universe is to be representable, today would have to be written 00000002016-02-26. Doing otherwise would force data consumers to check their ISO 8601 parsing software to see if it can handle our violations.
