Quite apart from all these people telling you that the day used to start at sunset, I am curious as to how you came to the thought in the first place, since the moon and it's phases do not align to hours at all.

I assumed that lunar months are delimited by full moons, but I was wrong.

Huh full moons could coincide at any time of the day, and depends on where on earth you are when it happens
