Comment on The Chinese calendar is 4721 years old. Did it have the same problem as the Julian calendar with an imprecise number of days per year?

I’m not an expert on the subject, but at least one of the calenders you’re thinking of is a Lunar calendar.

So not 365.242374 days but a variety of other synchronisation problems.
