Why people count 6 months
Semi-annual billing
Insurance and SaaS plans billed "every 6 months" renew on the same date, clamped at month end (Aug 31 → Feb 28/29).
Rate locks & CDs
Financial products quoted in months use calendar-month arithmetic, not 180-day arithmetic.
Performance reviews
Six-month probation and review cycles anchor to your start date.

Common questions
Is 6 months from today 180 days?
Not necessarily — 6 calendar months is 181–184 days depending on the endpoint months. Banks sometimes treat a month as exactly 30 days (360-day year); that is a convention that contradicts the 365-day year convention when used together. We use real calendar months.
What is 6 months from the 31st?
Month-end anchors clamp: January 31 plus six months lands on July 31, but August 31 plus six lands on the last day of February.
