I have Feelings about #4. Also #1 but you've all heard my Dog Owner Rant.
A long time ago I was deeply in love with a Jewish guy, and because we were both young he hurt me, and Yom Kippur came and went and he didn't say anything. And I was mifffed. And then in a rare moment of common sense I told myself that making someone's holy day about me was stupid and appropriative and that if I wanted closure on how he hurt me maybe I should talk to him about it.
The talk didn't go well, because we were young, but I am glad to this day I didn't say something like "hey you just had an Apology Holiday, apologize to me." Because that would have been so egregiously cringeworthy the memory would have killed me ten times over.

In conclusion, #4 needs more therapy.
