Well, not really. The one whole extra day doesn’t suddenly appear outta nowhere. But it’s to compensate the span of one year which is actually 365.2422 days, or about 365.25 days.
I’m surprised none of the people who complain about Daylight Savings time complain about Feb 29 once every four years. I’m not surprised a lot don’t do it, but “none” is quite an accomplishment.
I like the Lunar calendar. Moonths start and end at the new moon. Look to the skies! We will still need a solar calendar to figure out the solstices and equinoxes…Of course, the pre-calendar people had no problem, they just referenced Stonehenge…

Leap Day actually doesn’t begin till 23.19441943 Universal Coordinated Time. (It takes a while to verify on internet fact finding.)
