I like the 4th of July, it's the day of the year the Yanks finally use the correct day / month format.
That's reverse logic but I guess it's better than no logic at all. ISO 8601 is the correct way.
That's great for data storage but in everyday speech it's not that useful.
That's what we use in my home country both in written form and in everyday speech. It's completely fine, and I'd even argue it's better.
You mentally go from the broadest information to the more specific, the first piece of data you hear is immediately useful as you can place in time instead of having to wait until you hear the whole date.
It's the same logic as with every other form measurement from time, distance, volume, weight etc.

We need to change it to July of the Fourth!
