I think we should drop it from core for the following reasons:

1. We’re not using it anywhere and I don’t think there are plans to?
2. Different developers might end up wanting different customizations with the DOB. For instance, year should be optional but what if I don’t want year to be optional (age declaration for sites with age restrictions).
