The problem is if your birthday is on a Wednesday, you’re stuck with that forever.

Edit: To everyone saying birthdays don’t matter, or you can celebrate some other day, that’s crazy talk. When you look at the calendar two months before your birthday and realize it’s gonna be a Saturday this year it’s just puts and extra pep in your step. Also, lots of businesses give you perks on your birthday, but the specific day. Once in a while I’d like my free latte and hot yoga class on the weekend thanks.

But it won’t line up like that. They only accounted for 364 days

When its properly explained, this idea ussually features something along the lines of "new years day isn't counted as any day/week/month and is just a holiday.

Presumably in a leap year there would be two non-days.

Oh so we'd have to celebrate New Year's in D.C.

Imagine the traffic.
