Except, dates do have meaning to people. Anniversaries, birthdays, holidays, deaths. How do you know new years hasn't been a traditionally significant date or time of year for someone, besides just being a placeholder?

Because its impersonal, unless there was a birth, death, or anniversary on that date it holds no other significant meaning to anyone other then being a day to get wasted on. It holds as much weight as saint patties day, and I dont see anyone swearing off anything on that date. Our culture doesnt even lend any serious signifigance to it other then ringing it in hammered and making shitty resolutions your gonna fold on weeks later.

there are 6-7 billion people, and 365 days. i'm certain there is significance in each day to some of them.

No, Roman new years is literally the only day of the year that holds no significance to anyone. Anyone
