I suppose if you wanted to split the year into perfect quarters it would make sense to have the seasons start on their Solstice/Equinox. The days are going to start getting longer now but the weather is still going to be colder, so its still Winter until Spring, so you coukd argue that its been Fall up until now. But tbh I dont think seasons work so rigidly.
but you could still have perfect quarters if they mark the middle. That way, you know each one is squarely in it's respective season and you don't get silly statements like "This day near the end of December means Winter has Started" Is it the ambiguity? Does inconsistency, the lack of a clear delineation, make our industrialized brains uncomfortable?
