Timestamps with the format <yyyy-mm-dd> (without day of the week) are not recognized but <yyyy-mm-dd ddd> are [org-mode]

What Happened?

I went to edit my custom.css file to add some highlighting to timestamps and noticed that <yyyy-mm-dd ddd> (e.g. <2025-01-01 Wed>) got properly coloured while <yyyy-mm-dd> did not. Using the inspection tool I noticed that only the first timestamp format resulted in a span.timestamp element.

Reproduce the Bug

1. Append a timestamp such as <2025-01-01> to a heading;
2. Add a timestamp such as <2025-01-01 Wed> to another heading;
3. Use the inspection tool to notice that only the second is parsed as span.timestamp..

Expected Behavior

Both formats to generate span.timestamp since they are both proper org-mode syntax, and have essentially the same information.
