Q:
Regarding some deadline or period, it is often mentioned with "by + specific date".
And it seems that the specific date is normally considered as included.
However, as far as I understand, "by something" means "beside it & close to it (but not touching)". Then, since it is not touching, I think the specific date shouldn't be included in the period.
