    The built-in lib is fine for basic stuff unless you do some crazy shit like expecting "2" to parse as a valid date.

      For very basic things maybe, but it has a lot of other weird problems and restrictions. Mutability, no real timezone support, very limited arithmetic, to name a few. As soon as you move beyond the very basic, you want someting more robust.
