Add "on day X at time Y" here, and I'd buy that 😉
Feels to me that adding "on day X at time Y" is a bit superfluous, since
it's quite obvious from the examples, but I guess it can't hurt to be exact.
I think it would be a good idea to still have _some_ text for
`--date=default`, just so the structure of the sections stays the same
over all the date options. Maybe just something simple like.
"`--date=default` is the default format. It is a custom format based on
rfc2822". And then below that we have the table (which is more a
conclusion to the section, as it provides examples for a few, more
unclear, formats)

The default format `--date=default` shows a single line with
three-letter day of the week, three-letter month, day-of-month,
hour-minute-second in the "HH:MM:SS" format, followed by 4-digit
year, plus timezone information unless the local time zone is
used (e.g. "Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 +0000").
or something like that.
I think that following such a description in prose is still more
confusing than just showing an example. E.g. we could say:
Assuming a user in timezone +0200 (Central Europe) values of
Add "on day X at time Y" here, and I'd buy that ;-)
these `--date` argument would produce:
