Are you planning for this comment to be relevant for long enough that the leading zeros will be helpful for disambiguation?

Clearly they are referring to the years 1029 and 1032 (decimal). I just want to know what calendar system they're using...

  • Since the reunification of China under the most glorious of all the dynasties, perhaps? Or the founding of Chichén Itzá?

interesting, the notation also implies 2005 and 2010 A.D and not B.C, or maybe the notation is about exactly A.D? either way, interesting choice if it was intentional. we say “year 515” without disambiguation right
