        Hm i don’t really see a good point for this. It’s not too hard to use a calendar compared to the effort it would take the world to switch.

          Nah, if a few aliens put some nukes or worse weapons to our heads from above, maybe shoot a couple here and there, we would definitely switch within 2 weeks at most.

          Or, you know, we could just phase out the politics, give some ample time for economies and a few other select business that have work on very very puctual timing, like a few years tops, the 99% of the world would switch pretty seamlessly over a week at most. The remaining 1% could just as easily keep the old year length to continue their internal businesses. Changing most things, especially if from an incorrect or arbitrary thing to a systemic one, is rather easy but hard to accept.

        Now rip to people who have birthdays on weekdays because that will never change. People who have birthdays on weekends would hugely luck out.
