The way Go parses time strings by default is insane though, even the maintainers regret it. It's a textbook example of being too clever.

By choosing default values instead of templatized values?

Other than having to periodically remember what 0-padded milliseconds are or whatever this isn't a huge deal.

I'm not OP, but I also got tripped up the first time I saw time.Parse("2006-01-02 03:04:05") and was like what the actual?!

Yeah, that's ugly as fuck. I hate it
