And also, it should still be 12 months, just 4 months (December, January, June and July) should have 5 weeks while the other months have 4 weeks

But they you still have irregularities. Easier to just add Undecimber to the calendar.

You would then lose the ability to divide the year into pieces, since 13 is prime.

No half-yearly, quarterly or bi-monthly rhythm.

Our quarters don't follow the actual half anyway, with the solstice and equinox not matching up with the months.

The divide is easy, and can be marked on the calendar like a holiday.

  • 3 months and a week
  • 6 months and two weeks
  • 9 months and three weeks
  • New years (or day before or after, take your pick)

Much more convenient than making the whole calendar inconsistent.
