diary exps is the only available way to limit the number of repetitions
of an even.

Also, see org-class, which will automatically skips holidays (let's just
ignore the issue with time zones and holidays, please; just accept the
limitation)

Some real word examples of diary sexps scheduling in the wild:
- https://emacs-apac.gitlab.io/ :: <%%(diary-float t 6 4)>
- https://emacs-berlin.org/ :: <%%(diary-float t 3 -1)>

Finally, religious holidays can be defined and Nth weekday before/after
month/date.

Some people even use diary sexps exclusively.
