Any pitfalls in using Text field types for storing dates in bubble data tables?

Regarding date operators, does bubble have a way to declare a variable a date datatype which would allow you to convert other datatypes to a date to take advantage of those operators?

Only way that I can see that would work is when using the Simplified Extended ISO value in a URL parameter that when you extract it from the URL you declare it as a date.
