 ## What problem does this address?

 The block editor's "Compare Revisions" interface omits the year:

 {{{
 3 years ago (26 Jul @ 11:16)
 3 years ago (19 Aug @ 17:10)
 }}}

 As of this moment, one of those dates is ''more'' than three years ago;
 another is ''less'' than three years ago. While one might safely infer
 both revisions were made in 2022, I don't see any harm in including the
 specific year in the timestamp.

 ## What is your proposed solution?

 Let's add the year to those timestamps:

 {{{
 3 years ago (26 Jul 2022 @ 11:16)
 3 years ago (19 Aug 2022 @ 17:10)
 }}}
