Can anyone think of a logical reason, which doesn't involve
alcohol-related accidents, people who are terminally ill holding out
until their next birthday, depression/suicide "I'm a year older than I
was" etc? Something which is "blindingly obvious" even to a ten-year-old
at school?

There are many billions of days when you didn't die before you even had a
birthday.

I tended to assume that the original question meant "that any other day of
the same year", as anything else would not make sense - and also would tend
to disprove the very assertion that he was making if you included a
denominator of (every date in the past that has ever existed).
