Just a question: the issue is simplest when discussing Mondays and gets
tougher later in the week. On Thursday, your proposal would make "next
Friday" synonymous with "tomorrow". Are you really comfortable with this?

Just to see what others think....and maybe change someday in MLO...
I find that using 'next Monday' does not parse to the coming Monday, but
the one after the coming Monday.
There is always a debate around the use of 'this' vs 'next' when
referring dates, so there is no one answer.
My PoV is that MLO should use the strict interpretation, and next should
refer to the 'next in the order of things', eg 'next monday' means the
one that occurs next, after today. All other interpretations are based on
a regional, or cultural 'common use' interpretation of the English
language and are prone to introducing confusion...
What is your PoV?
(have fun)
