> I also like how it is "11 weeks" instead of 3 months,

May be that's because in US some people are paid bi-weekly and people's paydays can be different

Also months vary in length, but weeks don't.

What does the frequency of your paycheck have to do with your severance pay? Sure, 3 months, works well with twice monthly paychecks. But why 11 weeks if the pay is bi-weekly? Why not 12?

Shouldn't total number of weeks be a multiple of two than?
