The european one is sorted based on importance to see. The day is more important than the month which is more important than the year. The hour is more important than the minute which is more important than the second
But in any given situation where the month is important enough that I need to know it, I want to know the month regardless of the day. The 25th means fuck all to me unless I know the month, as well; whereas there are plenty of scenarios where I want to know the month but the day isn’t quite as important.
Usually if someone just says the 25th that means of the current month. The month only needs to be referred to if it’s not the same as the current. (In conversation)

In that case, nothing is stopping you from saying the month only.
The same thing happens to the year and day too
January means nothing if you dont know the year
