    when you ask a computer to sort things for you, it will automatically order things correctly when the date follows this format

    I’d go even further than that, and point out that the reason why computers sort things in this order is because that’s the most logical way to convey specific dates.

    Most significant digits on the left, descending left to right, in order, is how we do all other numerical representations. It’s only dates that we have different norms.
