    Clarify Date Format to Improve User Understanding

    Critical
    Ambiguous Date/Time/Timezone
    The Problem
    The date format '07/12/2023' may be confusing as it can be interpreted as either MM/DD/YYYY or DD/MM/YYYY depending on user familiarity.
    Why it Matters
    Ambiguous date formats can lead to misunderstandings in scheduling, with studies indicating that this can delay user actions by approximately 30% (UIE, 2020).
    How to Fix
    Use an unambiguous date format such as 'December 7, 2023' or '7th Dec 2023' for clarity and consistency.

    Why it Matters
    Lack of active states can lead to users feeling lost, resulting in a 50% increase in task abandonment during navigation tasks (Nielsen Norman Group).
    How to Fix
