Well, yeah... But in theory, if you were Tatius, trying to design a ritual to "kill" Orlanth (yes, limitations accepted), which climaxed on Windsday, Death week, Dark season, then is there any particular day on which said ritual should start? Any "lead-in" HQs, or anything? Any date-dependent stuff at all that we can use as an excuse for Tatius delaying the military defeat of WW?

Agreed, and I'm a little puzzled that in fact Tatius chose some other time. I suppose perhaps he was in fact expecting a return attempt during the following Sacred Time, and was ready to squash it if it occurred. (In fact, for all we know, this happened? But while that sounds like an intriguing scenario, it's beyond the scope of this group, I think?)
