Thanks all: I am (of course) aware of `ymd()`, the point of the tweet was that `anydate()` avoids all this automagically. Plus, as @shabbychef reminded us, base #Rstats was there first (for this value) as `as.Date("2022-03-21") + 7` also works. Peace out.

I also use it but it a) supports fewer formats that anydate(), b) does not deal with as many input types and c) still insists on the re-repeating for 1e5s time what "origin" is (as if there ever was a doubt) so anydate() wins. Apart from that it's great and zero-dependency.
