by this, a date of 03, should correctly resolve to 2003, right?

Before you pass judgement, check to see what your DATEFORMAT and/or
TIMESTAMPFORMAT is set to.

From the manual:
Note: If a date format string contains %Y, but the value for the year is
two-digit, the following centuries are assumed, if appropriate:


Value Century
00-36
 2000s

37-99
 1900s


That is, a two-digit year of 99 is evaluated as 1999, and a two-digit year
of 00 is evaluated as 2000.


So, if your date format string contains a %y, 19XX is probably assumed.
