Are you saying you'd put the extra days at the start of the first month of the year? Wouldn't that put you back to where the days are not consistently ordered based off their position in the month?

The extra days don't advance the Sun-Sat cycle no matter where you put them. January 1 is essentially defined as Monday (or whatever).
