well, it's not that they removed anything, it's that the company google paid to create the holiday events told google how much it was costing to include every substrata of celebration (i.e. national bean day, national micronesia first peoples remembrance), so google said, you know what, we're just going to have federal holidays on our calendar and people can add the rest as they like. which i think is fair enough.
