I’ve never assumed that interpretation. I always thought the gifts were given each day. So you end up with twelve partridges and pear trees at the end. The song says “on the nth day of christmas my true love gave to me” doesn’t that imply you are receiving all those gifts that day?
I guess this also illustrates a problem. Maybe it should at least say the song has been interpreted in more than one way before doing its count.
