			# This header is typically included in HTTP responses and follows the format defined in RFC 9110.

				#
				# @parameter value [String] a raw header value.
				# @returns [Date] a new instance.
				def self.parse(value)

				# Coerces a value into a parsed header object.

				# @parameter value [String] the value to coerce.
				# @returns [Date] a parsed header object.
				def self.coerce(value)

				# Whether this header is acceptable in HTTP trailers.
				# Date headers can safely appear in trailers as they provide metadata about response generation.
				# @returns [Boolean] `true`, as date headers are metadata that can be computed after response generation.
