St George the Trophy-bearer

Fixed 04-23, but transfers (fixed <= pascha → pascha+1) when it falls in Holy Week. Because it follows Easter, the date changes each year.

Two sources, one rule (GOARCH + namedays.gr near-equivalent). Fires 16 of the next 35 years (2027, 2030, 2032, 2033, 2035, 2038, 2040, 2043, 2044, 2046, 2049, 2051, 2054, 2057, 2059, 2060 — computed list, REGRESSION-ONLY fixture, proves nothing). Edge case Pascha exactly ON 23 Apr (next 2079, 2090): the sources' phrasings diverge; GOARCH's 'on or before -> Bright Monday' adopted as the ecclesiastical form.
