Because they don't adjust for 12 lunar months
And the solar year, the Muslim month long daytime fast for Ramadan moves backwards 11 days a year. Big difference between daytime fasts in summer and winter. No posuk to keep the time in any particular season.
An interesting side note: I had to say kaddish this past year. Normally we say kaddish, lo aleinu, for a year minus a month. But because it was a leap year with two Adars?, I stopped two months before the yortzeit..
