Where the "right value" is usually "a year a few years older than the
oldest data I personally need to store" and the canonical value is 70,
or sometimes 80.

Note that if you interchange data, you need to either convert to YYYY
or hope your CMARK is the same as theirs (most people call it the
"pivot date", in my experience).
