After I press F2 on ANY editable cell in the spreadsheet the content of the cell is always selected - to un-select it I must press home, end, left arrow or right arrow.
Well, if you press F2 on a date, only part of the date is selected. When I tried this earlier, I automatically selected the rest of the field before pressing the minus.

There is no need to check anything. To clear a date just press the F2 key, followed by the '-' key, followed by the Enter key; use the '=' to set to today. If you change your mind exit the cell edit with Escape.
Personally, that is much clearer than what you originally wrote and why I expanded on it.
