Did you really did test that? I don't believe it. You're making it up, for
reasons known best to yourself. Can't be bothered to test?

'weekday', like 'month', results in a _constant_ which looks like the
English name of the weekday. No matter what you set the International Date
System Preference to, the result is always Thursday, Friday, etc. Never,
ever Viernes.
