For full accessibility, you should support both options ;)

I worked on this recently for an accessibility audit of the OPAC ;).

Try the arrow keys whilst holding ctrl or shift ;). Holding ctrl sets the arrow
keys to navigate through days, holding shift allows them to navigate month to
month, year to year.  (This also works with the screen reader, reading out the
date after a small pause on your selected date.

I think I even submitted a documentation patch for this.. it was a requirement
to ensure it worked this way to pass the accessibility audit undertaken by UK
Gov.
