I've noted that a majority of commercial web interfaces in the US that
ask for expiration dates of credit cards have four-digit years, even
though all the list entries are in the twenty-first century. IMO y2k
caused a subtle but apparent cultural shift toward four-digit years.
Whether it can be sustained will depend on such things as CLDR.
