A comment on Do not use 'week year': YYYY. Parent comment
Why? `yyyy` is simpler to type, so makes a lot more sense for "year of era".
> For contrast in moment.js, YYYY and yyyy do what you expect and "week year" is GGGG or gggg.
In LDML (which I assume is what SimpleDateFormat uses), the G field is already spoken for the era name (BC/BCE and AD/CE).
