I think this needs to be reverted (and the UI fixed to allow an older date
to be selected).

Selecting a past expiry date is a perfectly valid way to create an account
that is effectively locked, for example, to allow pre-creation of roles for
staff that are yet to join.

PostgreSQL doesn't prevent this - why should we?
