I prefer the format: 5 Jun 2021
No-one anywhere uses YYYY-dd-MM, only YYYY-MM-dd, also like hours & minutes or angles or any other quantity it's in the most to least order.
Also YYYY-MM-dd sorts properly.

YYYY-MM-dd *IS* used worldwide. It's an ISO standard!

Does anyone other than USA use MM-dd, MM-dd-YY and MM-dd-YYYY? Less than 13% of the world's population.
Also even USA credit cards are MM/YY, so the USA date format makes no sense.

Only works in a small number of languages, though certainly unambiguous. Also needs a custom sort.
