The same calculation as SQL
SELECT try_strptime(text,'%Y-%m-%d') AS result FROM input ORDER BY shipment
Runs the example above.
SELECT TRY_TO_TIMESTAMP_NTZ(text,'YYYY-MM-DD') AS result FROM input ORDER BY shipment
Written for this dialect; not run here.
SELECT SAFE.PARSE_DATETIME('%Y-%m-%d',text) AS result FROM input ORDER BY shipmentWritten for this dialect; not run here.

Same rows from the calculation and from the SQL in DuckDB.
Where a naive translation goes wrong
- Swapping month and day changes parsing and can turn valid strings into NULL.
