I have worked in utility/telecom billing, and needed to examine large numbers of invoice dates, fulfillment dates, disconnection dates, payment dates, collection event dates, etc. There would often be particular rules for the relationships among these dates, and since many companies generate invoices every day of the month, you couldn't rely on rules like "this always happens on the 5th".
But, as you say, these are /particular rules/. Why do you think they would be the same in another industry, or even another telecom company? Why should they be integrated in Python's standard distribution?
