It seems that you don't care about portable code. It seems that you don't care about making suggestions that will work on any system likely to be used by the readers of this forum. It seems that you frequently make suggestions without testing them and believe that readers should be smart enough to ignore the suggestions you make that might not work on their system (on any system).
But, there are many users on these forums (including me) who are using UNIX systems that do not include GNU
date.

Please do not denigrate users (like cfajohnson, Scrutinizer, and Smiling Dragon) who:- try to write portable code,
- warn readers that extensions are being used that might not be portable, or
- ask question submitters what OS and shell they're using so suggestions can be made that will work in the submitter's environment.
Please also review rule 2 in the rules you agreed to when you joined this forum.
