I don’t think it’s that complicated. April Fools Day, Mother’s Day, etc. are recognized, at least in theory, by everyone. Easter is not.
Got a tip for us?

I don't recognize april fools, or flag day. And in theory, not everyone celebrates Christmas. This isn't complicated. Just puzzling. Seems to be religious holidays dropped.
I don't understand why it has to be a religious battle (not that I am implying you believe as such). Why should anyone be upset that Easter is listed on a calendar any more so then a Jewish Celebration or Muslim celebration? As A Christian, I have zero issues seeing another faiths celebration on my calendar. It does not change my beliefs, nor threaten to change my beliefs, nor harm me in any way. The same goes for not seeing Easter listed on my Calendar. It does not change my beliefs, nor threaten to change my beliefs, nor harm me in any way.
I think it's quite simple. Christmas and St Patrick's Day are major, money spinning holidays with a lot of drinking, partying etc. Easter not so much...........
Only statutory holidays should be in the calendar by default.
Imagine if someone invented a religion and told their boss they got the rest of the week off. You would be laughed out of the office, and told don't come back to work if you actually *did* take those days off...

It shows up on my calendar. A ton of holidays actually show up. Like groundhog day, but I may not be subscribed to the same holiday calendar?
Earth Day is a US Holiday 
I added a US Holiday subscription to iOS which has all the holidays apple leaves out.
Easy fix for anyone who wants to see the religious holidays on their calendar.

Easter appears on my calendar, but it's pulled from my Gmail US Holidays calendar. Apple's US Holidays calendar displays April Fools day.
