I’m not sure what all this focus on calendars has to do with anything
anyway. The setting of the beginning of 1 AD is arbitrary.

If the Biblical Jesus even existed, the only available evidence on the YEAR
of his birth is contradictory even within the Bible and the closest guess
scholars make is “somewhere between 4 and 6 BC”. 

Let alone the month or day of it, which is a complete unknown as the
writers of the Gospels didn’t bother to include any such information and
there are no external records to cover it.
