Also, how would that work on things like birth certificates?

    I feel like celebrating on March 1st when it’s not a leap year makes the most sense. If someone was born on February 29, then their birthday is the day after February 28.

        I feel like celebrating only on February 29th during a leap year makes the most sense. If someone was born on February 29, then that’s their birthday and their rate of aging is slowed by %80.

          Your 80% claim doesn’t account for people who live through a year divisible by 100 but not 400.

          Children born today could feasibly turn 18 in 2096, but won’t celebrate their 19th birthday in 2100. They’ll turn 19 in 2104.
