AD 34 is a completed-period displayIt is not the fortieth day counted from birth as day 1, and it does not replace a Passion date.
Starting at coordinate −6, adding 39 elapsed days reaches +33: numbered day 40. Adding 40 elapsed days reaches +34: numbered day 41. AD 34 is retained as the completed-period display, not as a replacement Passion date.

Counting and source notes

The calendar markers derive from the chosen traditional datum. The cards distinguish counting conventions; they do not establish a second purification law or a second Temple presentation. File 13 separately prefers AD 33n for the Passion, permits AD 30n, and classifies AD 33t as a completion member.
