What we need here is seconds per month, not seconds per year. I think we should still assume 31 days per month here.

Can you point out where we need seconds/days per year in the codebase?

I believe any place including this one when we need a duration (in seconds or its fractions). The difference between months_between() and this place is months_between uses month length to calculate fraction of month, and 28 or 31 days per months don't really matter because it impacts on 2nd or 3rd digit in fractions but here we operate on bigger numbers when months form years. And it becomes matter how much days we use per year. Let's say we calculate the duration of 10 years which 120 months. If we use 31 days per months, this duration is 31 * 120 = 10 * 372 = 3720 days but if one year is 365.2425 than 10 years = 3652 days. The difference is 3720 - 3652 = 68 days or the calculation error is more than 2 months. That's matter I believe.

months_between is sort of a special case because "31 days per month" is (it seems) actually how it is supposed to work, correctly.

It's rare that someone would specify "1 month" here, let alone "10 years" right? or am I missing something? these are things like watermark intervals. Not that it means the semantics don't matter, it's just quite a corner case.

I therefore just don't feel strongly either way about it. We don't need to match months_between semantics. More precision is nice, but surely it almost never comes up anyway? I don't mind the change, as a result.

It's interesting since this change doesn't affect our tests.
