YYYY/MM/DD is good for file locating in a single folder.

And YYYY-MM-DD if you're all in one level because there are far fewer files.

Exactly, combining chronological and lexicographic order perfectly.

I just do YY/MM/DD. It is highly unlikely someone is looking at those files a century later.

I'm old too, but I don't have files from the last century.
