Dave Johansen added the comment: The use case was parsing user input of ISO 8601 date strings and converting them to UNIX epochs. The input "0001-01-01T00:00:00" is valid, parses to a valid `datetime` and it seems like a reasonable expectation that all of the functions should work on a valid `datetime` (especially when they worked in earlier versions of Python).
