I have heard people say the same thing about great articles and such, but I myself would like to see the relevancy as to age instantly. I can understand though why the developers went with the default permalink structure as is, because the chosen option will work on any server kind: Apache & Windows. The pretty permalink structure is a bit harder to get right on a windows server so the choice they made makes sense to me. I agree with adding the ‘year-part’.

Numerical permalink just won't give any sense to the search engine of what your post is about and as Jason, I don't understand why Wordpress developers used it as the default form.

What I can't understand is why the developers of WordPress don't at least make the default the post title? Yea I see so many sites out there there are still using the default permalink structure.
