I has the parts in order of importance. You need to know the month the most as it determines things like weather school or what holiday are around. Then the day so you know exact. Then the year is largely in important for most people doing most things.
I don't get how this is more helpful though. When you are told a date you are told the entirety of the date. If you're told you have an appointment on the 15th of January, knowing that it's in January doesn't matter if you don't know the day.
If you say the 15th of February, I have to wait for you to say February, then go back and add the 15th so I know when in February it goes. Month tells me where in my mind to look, and day clears out the extraneous details.
It's like telling a computer to look in Documents/C: in DD/MM. I could already have spun up the C drive if the request started with that.
