Years and months are applied first, then weeks and days, so the order is not interchangeable: three months plus 30 days can differ from 30 days plus three months.

A count of calendar days is not a count of working days, and for anything with a deadline the difference is the part that matters. Between Oct 7, 2026 and Oct 14, 2026 there are 5 weekdays and 2 weekend days.
