How to interpret your result
This returns a year only and does not define the date of a leap-day anniversary.
Choose whether an interval includes the start or end boundary. Month and year additions use explicitly stated clamping rules when a destination day does not exist. Date-only arithmetic is kept independent of local daylight-saving hour shifts.
