Company messed up dates on Claim Form

So 6 months after seeming to accept and back off from trying to enforce a parking charge, I got an undated "letter before action" from them 2 weeks ago. Before I could respond, I got a Claim Form through.
I was pretty confident of winning anyway but notice on the claim form they have transposed dates - so instead of saying 10/2/24 (February) they have claim the "offence" happened on 2/10/24 (October). Is this a dam slunk win when I point this out to the court? Could they ask to alter the date or resubmit?

We've seen these before where they inadvertently change to US format for dates.1
