### Description

The following code:

```php
<?php
php -r 'var_export(strtotime("202343-2208-153523"));
```

Resulted in this output:
```
1696357903
```

But I expected this output instead:
```
false
```

**Notes:**
- This changed in 8.1.7
https://3v4l.org/HT4tt
- Looking at the changes to Date made in 8.1.7 my best GUESS is that it was this one.
https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=51987
- If you look at the date for that timespan, it is today's date. I'm not sure if that is
jsut a coincidence or if it will change every day.
var_export((new DateTimeImmutable("202345-2208-153523"))->format("Y-m-d
H:i:s"));

Cheers! :)
