Countries breathe at 7–12 days, honeymoon islands at 5–8. Continents: pick one region. Treating the famous month as default. January & February is often that trap.
Tool-Lifes is a static atlas. It does not sell flights or rooms. Read Indonesia as a May, June, July, August & September / January & February pair, not as a slogan season.

5-Step Execution & Verification Playbook
- Pick destination A on file — {d0} is already listed with twelve weather and crowd scores.
- Pick destination B on file — {d1} uses the same on-file month windows.
- Read weather vs crowd for one month — Open one published month and compare comfort marks — illustrative, not a live forecast.
- Dest-pair is not inventory — The climate desk compares teaching windows. It does not hold fares, rooms, or insurance quotes.
- Africa (5) — Atlas note 45 on Africa defines the operating range of 2 when “June, July, August & September” applies.
Myth vs. Evidence Fact-Check
What climate numbers are already on file?
Each country and honeymoon hub publishes twelve weather-window scores and twelve crowd-pressure scores. The when-index ranks months from those arrays: weather minus a fraction of crowd.
Does comparing two destinations book a trip?
No. The climate desk compares on-file windows only. It is teaching comfort - not a fare, forecast, or booking inventory.
What does last month versus this month mean on this index?
It marks the last month card you opened against the month you are on now. Stored on this device. Not a live forecast.
Are honeymoon picks rooms you can reserve?
No. Honeymoon hubs use the same climate windows and craft notes. There is no booking stock on this atlas.
