Windfall Elimination Provision Awareness Project: improving the experience of retirees around an obscure Social Security rule affecting 8+ states (previously https://ssacalculator.org)
[ ] move the default value for retireDate from user-state-context to this function (?) so that it can see when the retire date is yet unset. Right now, it is impossible to know whether it is the starting value. This may require other changes to support the new default value of retire date.
[ ] Use some of the code in the comments from user-state-manager.tsx line 94 and also inline comments to utilize whether retireDate had previously been set.
