Lots of places conversationally say ‘April 5th’, but when writing it out in an understandable format, DD/MM/YYYY logically increases in magnitude.
If we used the ‘April 5th’ excuse, then Americans would be writing their times in mm:hh notation because people sometimes say ‘half past 12’.
This is key. MM/DD is how they write it because it’s the most common (in America).
But yeah, having a logical and practical way of writing the dates like the ISO standard would be best.
