The people far smarter than us are the ones that do month over month and not the way you want. I fail to see how you are smarter that legions of economists around the world.

Again, I get what you're saying. For a layman like you and I it helps our emotions to do it a different way. What I keep stressing is that to those experts there is an intentional reason to not include emotion when analyzing numbers. If you do so you run the risk of making the wrong decisions.

You are free to continue screaming into the wind because the process is different than you would like. I'm simply telling you it isn't. There are more than likely very VERY good reasons. Better to spend your energy on more productive things.
