I’m English, not American but I see it as Saturday and Sunday are the two ends of the week. Like how a string has two ends. The weekend is both the start and the finishing end of the week.

since we are in a temporal context here i would argue that there is a clear distrinction between beginning and end here

So, when someone asks if you are free the next two weekends, you assume they’re talking about the next Saturday (tail weekend) and the next Sunday (front weekend)?

No, the two ends of a week create a singular weekend.

Just like the two ends of a string create a singular string end.
