I don't understand this, what am I missing? AFAIU BOTW is a /client/ 
(i.e. user) setting that defines how calendar data should be /rendered/. 
If for me the week starts on Monday it also starts on Monday if look at 
a US calendar, no? It's irrelevant on which day the day the week starts 
in the country/region a shared calendar originates.

Indeed, but what is the impact? It may be confusing only if you set up a 
meeting with someone "on Sunday in week 40" if your week starts on 
Monday but your peer's starts on Sunday. However, that's not how you 
generally set up meetings.

Btw, this is very loosely related to the old TB bug 505981 where in a 
comment[1] the various ways in which BOTW can currently be configured 
was discussed.
