I've actual been saying this for years for this exact reason. God forbid we not be able to divide a year into clean quarters.

Three months and one week still seems like a clean quarter to me.

Alternatively, if we really want to stick to the three-month quarter then we could call the extra week of each quarter an off-week or save it all for the 13th month of the year since nothing really gets done during that time anyway.
