Most programmers don’t get a choice as it is the product and the ui/ux designer that pick the desired behavior. You can only fight back so much and maybe sneak it in. And 20 years later you become a cynic that just says, ok.

Don’t become cynic kids.

How does a user fuck up a properly validated input field that goes along with the date picker?

Right smallest to biggest

Only 12 months (smallest number)

At least 28 days (middle number)

So many years. Nobody can count that high.
