I don't know if any day makes more sense, it's really a question of habits.

Sunday is often associated to religion because it is church day for christians, that might explain why most country start or end the week on that day. I could imagine that jewish country could prefer using saturday as the first (or last) day of the week.

In my biased french mind, it is weird to break the 'weekend' into two different weeks, it makes sense to me that those two days are at the end of the week.

But then again, really a question of habits

Sun rise probably universally represents the beginning of something while the night represents an end. It would be nice to start with sun day and end with moon day.
