I am only speaking from my Anglican (high-church, for what that is worth) experience (I'm married to an Anglican priest) and both Shrove Tuesday and Ash Wed. have specific religious services, which differ from both regular masses and standard confession and absolution. So, while it may be true for you and many others that there is nothing different on that day, for some there is. And that's my only point.
