Is there a 30th day in the leap April of the lunar calendar in 2020?

According to the above screenshot of the lunar calendar about the leap April in 2020, the timeline of this month is from the first day of the leap April to the twenty-ninth day of the leap April.
Therefore, there is no 30th in the leap April of the lunar calendar in 2020, and the last day is the 29th!

The 24 solar terms start from the Beginning of Spring. The odd-numbered solar terms are called "festivals" (Beginning of Spring, Waking of Insects, Pure Brightness, Beginning of Summer, Grain in Ear, Lesser Heat, Beginning of Autumn, White Dew, Cold Dew, Beginning of Winter, Heavy Snow, Lesser Cold) and the even-numbered solar terms are called "Central Solar Terms" (Rain Water, Vernal Equinox, Grain Rain, Grain Full, Summer Solstice, Greater Heat, End of Heat, Autumnal Equinox, Frost Descent, Light Snow, Winter Solstice, Greater Cold).
The average time between two solar terms is 365.2422÷12=30.4368 days, which is 30 or 31 days.
The Earth's orbit around the sun is elliptical, and it moves faster at the perihelion (vernal equinox and autumnal equinox). The time interval between two solar terms can be up to 31.45 days.
The average length of a lunar month is only 29.5306 days, with a short lunar month lasting 29 days and a long lunar month lasting 30 days.
This results in the following situation: in some months (usually short months), the previous solar term has passed at the beginning, and the next solar term has not yet arrived at the end.
For example, in 2001 (the Year of the Snake), Grain Full fell on May 21 (the 29th day of the fourth lunar month), and the first day of the next lunar month was May 23, which had missed Grain Full. However, this lunar month ended on June 20, and the summer solstice was on June 21, so this lunar month had no "Zhongqi" and fell after the fourth lunar month, so it was called a leap April.
According to this leap month rule, there is a leap July in 2006, a leap May in 2009, a leap April in 2012, a leap September in 2014, a leap June in 2017, a leap April in 2020, and a leap February in 2023.

What are the taboos in leap April?

Taboos in leap April: Avoid getting married
Since "four" and "death" are homophones, and death represents separation, leap April is not suitable for such happy events as getting married. Traditional customs state that getting married in leap April will lead to bad implications such as emotional discord, separation of husband and wife, and becoming a widow.
Taboos in the leap month of April: Avoid burials and relocations of graves
In some areas, there is a custom of not moving graves in a leap month. The reason is that a leap month is an extra month and the gates of hell cannot be opened in this month. People who died in a leap month have to be buried in the next month. However, people do not believe in ghosts and gods nowadays, and the dead are generally cremated, so funerals need to be handled as soon as possible. This is not recommended.
