Ruby date lib can parse date with year 0
`$ pry
[1] pry(main)> shitdate=Date.strptime('0000-01-07','%Y-%m-%d')
=> #<Date: 0000-01-07 ((1721064j,0s,0n),+0s,2299161j)>
[2] pry(main)> shitdate.year
=> 0
[3] pry(main)> ` 

There is no year 0 in gregorian and julian calendar between 1 BC and 1 AD
It should raise ArgumentError like it do when month/day number is 0.
