Endfield was previously written off as undatable. That was wrong: a first
pass only inspected its Duration rows (all "Permanently Available") and its
year-less version grid, and missed an "Event | Schedule & Summary" table
whose cells read "Period: 08/09/26 - 08/30/26 During the event...". Two real
events, with a year.
Adds MM/DD/YY range parsing for that shape. Month-first ordering is not
assumed lightly — Endfield's own version grid reads 01/22, 04/17, 07/16 for
versions 1.0, 1.2 and 1.4, chronological only if the month comes first.
Also stops presenting unlock conditions as descriptions. Several templates
put "Reach Union Level 8" where a blurb would go; filling the summary slot
with text that never says what the event is is worse than leaving it empty.
Wuthering Waves correctly drops to zero summaries as a result.

Honkai: Star Rail and Wuthering Waves state a year on each side of a range
("Aug. 14, 2026 - Aug. 24, 2026"), which the year-on-the-end parser cannot
read.
Both also publish genuinely open-ended events — "Jul. 24, 2026 - End of
4.6", "July 10, 2026 - Permanent". Those keep their real start and report no
end, rather than being dropped or given a guessed one.

Every date function returns null rather than inferring a missing year,
month or end date. A source that does not state an end yields
endsAt: null, never a plausible guess — a confidently wrong end date is
the failure this product exists to prevent.
Handles the three formats seen on Game8: "August 12, 2026",
"August 12 - September 21, 2026" (year applies to both ends, rolling the
start back when the range crosses New Year), and a slash datetime range.
Abbreviated months parse too, so a source switching to "Apr. 29" does not
silently drop events.
