Fine, but you CAN change the job date. So his question becomes:

Why is "date" a job attribute, but not "time"? In most contexts, the
time is simply a higher-precision extension of the date.

Personally, I don't know why "date" is a job attribute. What is this
attribute really supposed to *mean*? What is its purpose? (I'm not
trying to be difficult; I fully expect the answers to be reasonable; I
just don't know what they are.)
