I didn't presuppose the notion of adding additional days to the week. I merely supposed that the leftover days, that do not make a standard 7-day week on their own, should be concentrated to either the beginning or end of the year...
The symmetry calendars as well as the ISO week number calendar do 364 day (52 week) years with a leap week every 6 or 5 years
That strikes me as the best way of making the year more even, at the cost of losing the easy leap year rule (which few people know anyway)
364 day /years, that's progress here...
371 days in leap years!
Also January 1 is always Monday, and you could paint the calendar on your wall because every year would have the same dates on the same days, just with an extra week added to December every several years
The biggest problem is that it doesn't track the actual solar day, so farmers would need to use the current calendar to work out when to plant
