The black spooky ghost lantern I bought years ago for Halloween has long since become an all-year-decoration, because, why not?

So let's generalize your premise a little:

August is a month, as is October.

Reason enough, I would say!

I don't even have a counter argument for your logic.

"w/" has been around forever, though it's a bit less common without the slash. Here's a random language forum post from 16 years ago commenting on how it's common which I found with a quick search, I'm far too lazy to put in more effort but I'm sure someone properly motivated could find older references or maybe even the full etymology.
