One can use the standard for representation, i.e. show 2042-03-11 _and_
store files in 2042/03/11 ( ... as was the intention when time was invented
:o) ).
What's the problem?

Well, this will effectively result in URLs like
http://foo.bar.bg/posts/2042/03/11/date-format-is-confusing.html which may
be a bit confusing for some people, but the context (hierarchical
structure) should prompt what date it is supposed to be. (if one is aware
of what the intention was when time was invented)
:o)
