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).
