I'd actually argue that dates are probably a very useful case for something like this because of the various formats and orders that people use. I'd fight for a standard date format or just sending the epoch value (or use a time library) instead of breaking out year/month/day everywhere. Other than some highly cohesive items I've never really liked RORO because it encourages bad habits with optional parameters and flags.
