So here's what'd be a better alternative when considering seasons and quarters
March, June, September, and December are all 35 days long, every other month is 28 days long.
Day 365 is Year's End Day outside of the Calendar months, and Leap Day is an additional holiday inserted before January 1st when it happens.
The last adjustment I'd make is the Saint Monday plan, which is to say, make Monday a weekend day.
It's named after the moon, you see the moon at the end of the day, so the moon's day is the end of the week!

I would like to point out the biggest difficulty this faces.
There are about as many different ideas for new formats, complete with arguments about how they'd be the best one, as there are comments in this thread. And those arguments mostly hold up too.
A new format is never going to work because no one will be able to agree on what the best one is.
