5 related.

Give order to the format to capture American-style time as the last matching. (for example, 07/03/2021 could be read as 20210307 or 20210703).

In the case of a non-valid entry being included what should the outcome be: a) stop matching process b) convert invalid entries to null c) leave invalid as they are and allow matching (will this cause problems using the edit distance of 2 criteria)
