I don't know why they put just one zero in front of years. That just makes the clock slightly longer, and it's still insignificant in the grand scheme of things.

02023 in years only is good until 99999, then you'd need to prepend another zero.

It's a constant symbolic reminder, and still a 10X scope increase.

If you want to be pedantic about making "the clock slightly longer", you might as well say "I don't see why they don't write their dates out in base 62. Then they could make the clock shorter by writing wD instead of 2023". The point is that everyone who sees "02023" can have a bit of an "oh shit" moment where they instantly understand what it means.
