There was a problem hiding this comment.
Agreed that coming up with a better long term solution would be good but also that at least having a noisy warning to remind us is an improvement over the current situation. Have suggested possibly making comment explaining why we have added this schedule line a bit more explicit to not confuse future us, but ambivalent as to whether this is needed to approving now. Thanks for fixing @samcunliffe!

Regression tests are dumb. And years change.
I'd love it if we could find a way not to have the full-output regression test.
Failing that, I'm proposing a
cronso that we at least get an email on the 2nd January, which reminds us to fix the year. I acknowledge that it's a dumb solution, but it's a dumb problem: so fairs fair.
