By email, but apparently not in the newsgroup, Janis Papanagnou alerts
me to the issue being the - seperator:

   2025-11-17  >> ctrl-a (on the "1" in 17) >> 2025-11-16
 
Whereas I had been thinking of the 07 to 10 issue in months and days.

There's indeed a fix for these - separated dates, if you use them
regularly:

set nrformats=unsigned

   2025-11-17  >> ctrl-a (on the "1" in 17) >> 2025-11-18
