The first one is wrong in two ways:
1) it should behave the same as when specifying "s", as "s" is the default
2) the dates are the same: there *isn't* a difference. I suspect the comparison is doing a comparison to an unsolicited level of accuracy, and this reflects a bug in how dates are converted to strings as it looks like there's a millisecond component lost. But that's a different issue, possibly. The dates *should* be the same, anyhow.Attachments:
