It's simpler, more compact, and reusable from year-to-year in a way that no other calendar is. Here's both how it works and how to use it.

This is one of the best examples of over engineering something that nobody asked for, to solve a problem that nobody has, in the most complicated useless way possible. It's funny but irritating that it's presented with a straight face.

It's only simple if you have a bunch of calendar rules memorized. Personally instead of for example memorizing the Thanksgiving rule I would find it much easier to just look for the square titled Thanksgiving in Nov.
