Ok, I get that the Date API is problematic, but I wouldn't expect anything meaningfull from new Date("not a date").getTime() anyway. Why would you in the first place?

If you’re expecting shit data then you’d have unit tests for those cases so you’d know what to expect.

Maybe you don't expect shit data; you just get it. I know, always expect it....
