I don't get why more people don't go biggest to smallest. Makes so much more sense. Especially when listing dates in order. YYYY/MM/DD

That's how it's done in chinese. Imo DD/MM/YYYY is better though, since in practice the year is most commonly just the current year and isn't nearly as important as the day or month.
