And what is the defining event between BCE and CE? Oh, it's the birth of Christ? I'll be damned. So the use of BCE and CE is a solution in need of a problem. I guess the problem being how to make history more secular? BC and AD worked just fine for millennia, and still does to this day.

It's interesting to me to see how much time and effort SM puts into these threads.

Sure, nothing wrong it except for professional and academic work you’d use BCE and CE because it is the current universal standard.
