I use the term "week number of the last day" as a kind of functio

An algorithm to calculate the weekday of Jan. 1th given a year is not
obvious at all. Just the opposite: the more obvious an external fact is,
the easier (and more appropriate) it is to incorporate it to the
specification because it does not cause any distraction from the main
subject.

No, but it does explain h

outside the scope of the HTML specification. Similarly, the HTML
specification does not describe how you increment a number by 1.

For elements the spec requires:
The value attribute, if specified, must have a value that is a valid
week string.
