Because it's so basic. Add a switch that lets me decide how I want the date to be displayed on the lockscreen/notifications centre.

It doesn't need to be more prominently than where the date is right now, I just want the current year next to it as well.

Exactly, it's such basic knowledge to know - it'd be a waste of space to show it ... What UI even gives you the option to have year next to date/day and time?

Well, for some people, they know exactly what date it is, and what week number it is, does that mean we shouldn't show that either, because it's such a basic knowledge to know for some?

I'd prefer to accept that different people remember different details, that's why we let our personal computing devices be customizable, because not everyone is the same.
