You noticed it on the bill and still decided to write it in this abomination of a format in the title? In this sub?
--0220 used to be compatible (truncated representation). They were wrong to remove that from the standard, imo, but yes 02/20 is not valid anymore 😞
Yes, but including the hyphens and the leading zeros makes it a bit more human friendly and less likely to be misread or misinterpreted.
Well noticed OP!
That is legitimately very fucking cool.
But not ISO8601
hyphens can be skipped, can't they?
Yes, they can.
Shame on me. I read the serial number on the post as YYYYDDMM instead of YYYYMMDD.
You're forgiven, but only this time.
Thank you! However I will never forgive myself.

Oops, yes, typo, fixed, thanks!
The nice thing about leading 0s is that you don't need hyphens to read it correctly.
Yes, but including the hyphens and the leading zeros makes it a bit more human friendly and less likely to be misread or misinterpreted.
