I have no idea, why "VII" is better and more readable than "lip". As
for me, shortened names are better. According to
http://www.rjp.pl/?mod=kr&type=ort&subtype=37&id=123 using
sty/lut/mar... is acceptable, even if these names are not legal
abbreviations (there is no legal and official abbreviation for
weekdays and months names).

BTW there is a note in bugzilla:

I do not remember last time I saw date with roman numerals. I have
checked some legal papers, invoices and magazines... And there were no
dates written like this. Is this really "most common usage"? IMHO this
is rare and obsolete.
