Remove the seasons from release dates

I would like to ask that instead of announcing a release of something with a season and a year, that they provide an approx. month range instead. Australia, and many other south-of-the-equator countries, the seasons are opposite. If something is being released summer 2022, My first reaction is Summer has already been. And then I have to remind myself that they could be talking about Jun-Aug, which is winter for us. As an adult, I am aware of this difference. However children may not understand this difference. If the release is mentioned in a month range, it would remove that confusion entirely. I hope you see this suggestion as it would really help be more inclusive.

  Here is a tip: The Seasons for Minecraft update release dates make sense in the northern hemisphere. If it was summer in the southern hemisphere, then it would be winter in the northern hemisphere.
