This is a rumor, take it a grain of salt.

If this is true, I'd honestly be more made than happy. Yes, it makes more sense for a Winter centric season, but how is this any better than starting in early October/late September?
This is probably just clickbait (after all the article is behind a paywall), so I wouldn't really give it any validity at the moment. That said, if this is true it'd only be more confusing and stupid than just starting in January.
