Hi ptooey, thanks for reaching out about these issues with the date picker!

I definitely agree that choosing a date that goes back or forward more than a couple of years is cumbersome to do using the date picker, and also that it's not at all clear that dates can be typed manually instead. I've passed your feedback along to our product team to see if we can get some improvements made here.

Dates showing in MM/DD/YYYY in edit mode no matter what your regional format is set to elsewhere is a known issue at the moment, and we do apologise for any inconvenience caused. I've added your case to the issue on file for our development team to see as they continue working on this.
