"Forebruary is a wall calendar that you do not need to replace every year" — Hmm. When I had a wall calendar, I used it to write down upcoming events or tasks. So I needed to buy one calendar for each year I planned to do anything: if it's August 2025 and I'm already planning as far out as March 2026, then I need wall calendars for both 2025 and 2026, in order to have places to write what I'm doing. That is, I'd need to buy one calendar for each distinct year in which I had plans. This minimalist calendar has space for only a single month. So in the August–March scenario, I'd need to buy eight separate calendars for August 2025, September, October, November, December, January 2026, February, and March, in order to have places to write down what I'm doing in those months. That is, I'd need to buy one calendar for each distinct month in which I have plans at a time. (Presumably I could use dry-erase markers and reuse a month's calendar as soon as it was in the past.) The above is the geeky/theoretical interpretation. In practice, I don't think people would buy multiple of these; I think this just doesn't function as a calendar at all. It could be useful to display in a bank, where customers need to know today's date and nothing else... except that the calendar offers no way to mark today's date! Not even a little magnetic ring or anything. A simple flip calendar (as banks already use) is superior. It could be useful to display in a place of business, like a 19th-century clerk's office, where no employee would want to mark events on the communal calendar but it would still be useful to see at a glance "Next Monday, that's the 17th..." Unfortunately, suppose today is the 29th. Then next Monday is the... uh... We have two problems: not only can we not see dates in the next month, but the calendar doesn't even give us a hint about the number of days in this month! There's already a small genre of office comedy about things happening on "April 31st" or "September 31st"[1]; this calendar would exacerbate that problem to the point of being counterproductive to display at all. This calendar design isn't even a "solution in search of a problem" — it's merely several additional problems with no familial resemblance at all to a solution.
