the correction is carried out by deleting the incorrect birth date and creating a new birth date property
Deleting the statement and creating a new one will result in a new GUID.
Changing the value of a statement will result in the same GUID.
Or if there are two birth dates, one of which is marked and incorrect, the other is unmarked but incorrect. So the marked incorrect one is deleted and the unmarked incorrect one is fixed, say, by making what was an AD 1600 Gregorian birth date a Julian date.
It sounds like the corrected one (if it met one of the criteria of the script) would be tagged again on a new run.
I would add that this run is suitable enough as a one-time run, but utterly unacceptable as a maintenance task.
I agree this should be a one time thing. As said above, previously wikibase itself made the whole calendar area very confusing, this is now mostly resolved as I understand so in the future this should be less of an issue.
