I had myself convinced, too.

I did some checking on my end, and it appears that your guys are correct. Months are not part of the Maintenance Minder.
Apparently this is why the annual oil-change, 3-year brake fluid change, etc, are not part of the Maintenance Minder, because the Minder does not consider months, and those items are determined solely by months.
