I think I've also heard of people occasionally using day 32 for some
accounting or planning purposes, like if they want to record making a
payment on January 1 of the upcoming year in a calendar for the previous
year, they might choose to write it down as "December 32" there.  (This
doesn't make it officially part of the calendar, and I don't think that
practice is specifically Swiss.)

There are a few examples somewhat akin to this in

The extra day added to the civil calendar to keep it in sync with the
seasons is definitely February 29, as other people commented, including in
Switzerland.
