Probably the fact that the US is the only country in the world that puts them the wrong way around.

I don't know why you're down voted.

Mm/DD/yyyy is a crazy format.

If it weren't for the fact that my month number and day number were the same, I don't think I ever would have gotten it right growing up

It's middle endian.

Imagine having middle endian values in a processor. You're reading "1,337" as 3317.

It's nonsensical.

Big-endian yyyy-mm-dd is the most rationally consistent since it's how we write numbers normally. 1,337 is big endian: the 1 is the most significant (biggest) number, etc.
