Research direction

Start by reading Date.cpp at line 137 and trace how YearDescription represents the simulation start and how it relates to the run period object in the model. Done means YearDescription can optionally carry a month and day that match the model's run period; the issue does not mention a test file, so identify the relevant existing time or model tests while tracing the code.
