The whole table is meant to be a guide and not exact.  I like having the approximate calendar dates, because I think this is the most informative for non-release managers.  The week numbers are really meant for the release manager, but I would be fine replacing those with deltas (e.g. + 4 weeks) if you think that made more sense.
