Ok another US local units are retarded rant: it's called weekEND! why do you start your week at sunday and not monday! Sunday is part of the weekEND!

I'm English, not American but I see it as Saturday and Sunday are the two ends of the week. Like how a string has two ends. The weekend is both the start and the finishing end of the week.

since we are in a temporal context here i would argue that there is a clear distrinction between beginning and end here

End doesn't always have to be the latter side of something though like I said earlier with the string analogy. The start is also an end.
