They're helping implement the policy. If you think the rules don't make sense, argue for changing them, don't criticize the people following them.
FWIW I think having (2025) for something 1 month ago in January, but nothing 11 months ago in December, doesn't really make much sense. I'd change it to add a year only for things at least a year old. But I barely think it's worth writing this paragraph about in a post I'm already writing for another reason. Definitely not worth giving someone else grief about.
