@noelle Roman calendar shenanigans reminds me of the old saw, "stardards never die".
Chances are the reasons somethings are certains sizes or some processes happen in certain ways depend on decisions made thousands of years ago.
@confusedcharlot Were you also thinking of the popular legend about railroad widths and Roman chariots?
@confusedcharlot Pretty much, yeah.
