I didn't say anything about time format.  You just assumed.
Is "OT" Off-Topic, or On-Topic.  Could be either!  You just assumed.

I'm not out to get the whole world to change to ISO-anything.
I'm out to get the entire world to change to the way I do things ;-)
You are right about the sorting order, though.  But any app I use for
sorting dates (Excel) can sort MM/DD/YY correctly anyway.
