As a result Trino always treats dates and timestamps as values written using

  • proleptic is an important word, we should keep it

  • "This causes incorrect values when reading" reads as missing something.
    Incorrect values where? does the file gets broken, changed or malformed when we try to read it? or only the values reconstructed in computer memory are wrong?

date/time values before Oct 15, 1582 that were written using hybrid

we can remove "date/time", but then we need to indicate which types does this apply to.
@mosabua how would you want to indicate this?

Julian-Gregorian calendar.
