New description:

 In some themes, date format is not localized (see an
 [https://themes.trac.wordpress.org/browser/sadakalo/1.7.0/content.php?marks=13#L9
 example] in Sadakalo theme).

 Formats like `'F jS Y'` don't make a lot of sense for languages with
 declensions, which generally use `'j F Y'` (where F requires genitive
 case).

 We could improve the situation by adding more formats to
 `wp_maybe_decline_date()` introduced in #11226.
