What Utah expects
Utah spells 'parent-time' with a hyphen and legislates a minimum schedule by the child's age — plans are written as the statutory minimum or better, so cite the section you're building from.
Governing law: Utah Code § 30-3-10.8; minimum schedule § 30-3-35.
The honest trade-off
The most predictable schedule on this list — every week is identical, so there is no odd/even week to track and no calendar needed after the first month. It's also the natural on-ramp to 50/50: shifting a single night makes it 3-4-4-3.
