My understanding is you don’t actually need to update the copyright year… if anything it’s kinda misleading if you only have the current year

You don’t. It’s the year it was copywrited, not the current year.

Not that a date in a file really is valid evidence, but the point is to define when the copyright occurs. If i come back and say “well i did that same thing before you did” them it would make your copyright invalid.

If you update then you add an additional date.
