The definition of a month is more or less arbitrary depending on the situation.
Trying to define what exactly is the duration of a "month" is a bottomless
pit of endless bickering best decided by druids, popes and historians -
certainly
beyond the scope of SQLite. Some manufacturers even employ 13 "month" years
for production planning/scheduling because thirteen 28-day months /almost/
fit into a 365-day year.
There are many other functions with very well-defined/accepted semantics
that are more worthy of consideration as a core SQLite function.
LOL! You should look at a function to determine if a day is a holiday.
Talk about ugly! In some places you literally need to know the weather
and the phase of the moon!
