Yeah in general I prefer to use raw dates where possible. One place where I still haven't figured out how to use Intl though is parsing date strings in a particular timezone.
For example, how do I get the unix timestamp of midnight on July 1, 2023 in America/Denver time? Assuming my system isn't on America/Denver time of course. I don't think Intl has a good way of doing that.
I disagree, I prefer `slice()` :) for one thing, substr is considered a "legacy function." Also I mix up substr() and substring() so much that I just use `slice()` to avoid confusion.
