Stick with 1.0pl20230220 and no EPOCH.
Agreed (though 0plXX looks a bit odd to me and I'd probably go for 0.0.2023xxxx in that case) EPOCH isn't really a problem, the main thing (apart from ugly version numbers in PKGNAME) is that it can give some surprises with version specs in dependencies/@conflict lines/etc.
