Did I say it defines markup, or I did I say it doesn't use ISO 8601? No. -- It (DC.Date) already is a sufficient method to indicate time and periods, and having said that 'a user agent might parse this [...]' does not at all mean it's markup, since there is indeed the facility that user-agents display meta data as well.
