Normalize endpoints and count exact authority events over the declared weekday baseline. All values are computed from the formula above; no measurement or live data is involved.

## FAQ

**Is ponto facultativo a national private-sector holiday?**

No. It is preserved here as a federal public-administration optional day and must not be treated as universal closure.
