Here a source item specifies date as a year, edited data specifies item as ISO date, and as a result diff view is confusing:
Dates that specify year come from legacy data
We mandate full ISO date
It’s unclear what to do with dates that specify only year.
To properly address the issue we should use consistent date format:
Upconverting them to ISO date. Seems potentially misleading (if it’s unknown on which day in that year the item was actually accepted).
Change date format in data spec format to include both a full date and then a precision value that indicates whether month/day matter.
In meantime I want to try fixing structural diff view to show that format has changed (i.e., show original item data without date conversion that happens apparently at some stage).
