The USA can keep Fahrenheit, pounds weight and using them in ways no-one else does, imperial measures generally, whatever spellings and meanings they want for words. Everything. Except the stupid mm-dd-yy format or mm-dd-yyyy. It doesn't sort and you don't know what it means.
ISO is good: yyyy-mm-dd as NO-ONE anywhere has any other order for dates that start with years. It's Most to Least like every other measurement, and so is hours and minutes.
Since around 2000 people outside the USA have gone from dd-mm-yy or mm/yy to four digits. Except on Credit cards which are still stupidly mm/yy.
The dd-mm-yyyy also sorts, though it's not totally unambiguous because of the USA.

EDIT, PS:
putting a three letter abbreviation for month is bad. Some people don't use English.

If I was being totally pedantic I'd ask people to use HC dates, i.e. today is 12020/09/24, stops the argument of BCE vs BC and Julian vs Gregorian and no year Zero issue. UK changed YEARS later to Gregorian from Julian than most of Europe.
