The prime factors of 365 is 5 and 73, hence a month should either be 73 days and there should be 5 of them, or there should be 73 months with 5 days each.
The problem here is that 0.25 is actually an overestimate by about 3 in every 400 years. That’s why we don’t have leap years on every hundredth year, but we do have them again every 400. (And, of course, you can get even more precise than that.)

Mathematical perfection!
Problem here is there’s actually 365.25 days in a year, the .25 is why we have leap years.
Ok, thats fine, we’ll just… The factors of 365.25 are: 487¹×3¹×2⁻²
Wait…

Yeah yeah Georgian reform. Problem it it breaks in 6500
Your mom has leap years
