I don't think it's true. When you say "2 months from now", some people will think "9 weeks from now" (or "10 weeks from now"), others "60 days from now", and yet other will think of the meaning this proposal gives it. That's why, when scheduling a meeting, you don't say "2 months from now". You give a precise date instead, because you know otherwise people wouldn't show up on the same day.
