  "method": "Find the first April 10 on or after the start date, then count the days from the start date to it.",
  "assumptions": [
    "April 10 comes every year, so the count is never more than 365 days.",
    "The start date itself is not counted: from the day before April 10, the count is 1; on April 10 itself, it is 0.",
    "Start dates from January 1, 1900 to December 31, 2400 work for the count to April 10, the range the date field accepts.",
    "Today is the date on your own device, so the count to April 10 changes at midnight where you are. Dates are whole calendar days, so a daylight-saving change never adds or loses a day."
