And I will hunt down every place you have proposed this and make sure this serious disadvantage is mentioned. EDTF is human-readable. Humans have been using the same notation, in many formats and languages for Julian and Gregorian dates for 400 years, with ISO 8601 being one of the rare exceptions. And many ISO 8601 users are ignorant of the no-Julian restriction and therefore make mistakes. This human factors situation is an excellent reason to reject EDTF.
