    Like I said, we need smaller subdivisions than 73 for practical purposes.

    just having 5 season per year and nothing else simply isn’t practical. Imagine having to wait 70 days to the weekend 💀. We need to have a week analog, and no matter what it’s not going to fit cleanly in the seasons.

    Actually, splitting the season into 10 day weeks with a 3 day weekend, and then ending each season with a 3 day holiday could work, not opposed to that lol

    But I don’t like 73, it’s not power of 10 or 12 so it doesn’t fit a decimal it duodecimal metric calendar. The universe sucks for not confirming to the way we order to count.
    I want to have like… A day, a decaday (week), hectoday (season), kiloday (year), megaday (millenium).
    And in the other direction, a day, a deciday (hour), centiday (minute), milliday(second) etc.
    So my plan is to change the orbit and rotation of earth to force reality to match our preferences

      Well, your solution works. But if you want to subdivide the season into neat and regular weeks, it’s not possible. So the next best thing is subdividing the year into weeks while disregarding the seasons.
