I don't understand what is the rationale behind the current regex, why is there mandatory in-between characters?

The current regex passes with the format option set to ```dMyyyy``` while it doesn't with ```dMy```, on the linked icu documentation it is stated that ```y``` is equivalent to ```yyyy```.

So when setting this format option to dMy, fields are rendered in a wrong order because of the fallback (year, month, day).
