Everybody involved agreed to the change by the rules agreed to ahead of time so I don't see any reason to be bothered.
I'm not big on religious holidays and ceremony being given institutional dispensation but I'm not involved. Since they include "personal birthday" as a holiday, I'd think it would be easier to just give everybody two more float holidays a year and take Christmas (the only other recognized religious holiday) off the list. Christians can take Christmas and Labor Day (or Christmas and Easter if they prefer). Muslims can take Eid and Labor Day (or some other day), Jews can take Passover and some other day. This way they don't have worry about accommodating everybody faith that comes through. When they have 18% Hindi then the Hindis can just decide which two holidays are most important to them.
So, I don't object to the holiday, just the inefficiency in which it is granted.
