    If that were true, intercalary months shouldn’t have been necessary.

      I’m pretty sure that “oh, shoot, things got wonky… toss a 13th month in here real quick” is due to people trying to force months to fit weeks.

      It’s the opposite of what I was saying about the role that months play in timekeeping & how they work.

      ALSO, the same can be said for weeks & leap days… so if it’s a point against months, it’s just as much a point against weeks.

        Not a problem for the FRC, and 2023-W20 compares just fine with 2024-W20. Same part of the year, and the weekend is in the same spot.
