@EinfachHans It seems there's an issue with date-fns supporting string as a valid input.
I was implementing the fix and found that a few end-to-end tests were failing, so I started investigating and discovered this bug report in their repo: date-fns/date-fns#3710.
We'll have to wait until they fix to get proper support.
