Matthew 12:38-40 The Scribes and Pharisees Ask for a Sign
38 Then some of the scribes and Pharisees answered, saying, “Teacher, we want to see a sign from You.”
39 But He answered and said to them, “An evil and adulterous generation seeks after a sign, and no sign will be given to it except the sign of the prophet Jonah. 40 For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the great fish, so will the Son of Man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.
Jesus gave 1 sign and 1 sign only that he would be the Messiah and it was that he would be in the grave 3 days and 3 nights, yet many still are teaching a Friday death and Sunday morning resurrection of 1.5 days to be equal to 3 days/3 nights, even though the Jews never counted time like that.

Its only a Wed or Thursday that could work and fit scriptures, as Jesus death on the cross put and end to sacrifices as well.
Daniel 9:26-27King James Version (KJV)
26 And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself: and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; and the end thereof shall be with a flood, and unto the end of the war desolations are determined.
27 And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.

And lo, he held up a sign, and the sign didst say "OCCUPY JERUSALEM"

No, It didn't.
Sacrifices continued for 40 years and when they ended, it was with great miracle, signs and wonders. Paul himself sacrificed after Jesus died, and sacrifice has still not ended, only animal sacrifice has ended.

Question: Perhaps I’m missing something but how does one get three days and three nights (and not more than three days and three nights) out of Wednesday’s crucifixion?
[Wednesday = Day 1 and 1st night ]
Thursday = Day 2 and 2nd night
Friday = Day 3 and 3rd night
Saturday = Day 4 and 4th night
Raised on Sunday = Day 5 and no night.
Of course the official scriptural version is:
Crucified and buried on Friday = Day 1 and night 1
In tomb on Saturday = Day 2 and night 2
Raised from the dead on Sunday = Day 3, no night.

He was placed in tomb around 6pm(sunset) on Wednesday and at sunset on Saturday night he rose, which was considered the 1st day of the week, since a new day started at sunset and fulfilled the 3 days/3 nights. All 4 gospels said he rose early in the morning on the 1st day of the week, not at sunrise. They came at sunrise to see he was already gone.
So you have 3 full days & 3 full nights. Jesus gave 1 sign and 1 sign only and it was he was going to be in the grave 3 days and 3 nights. If he wasnt in the grave 3 days & 3 nights aka Fri-Sun, HE IS NOT THE MESSIAH.

Where does day 1 come from on Friday? He was buried (entombed) in the evening. That's day 0 and night 1.
So technically, that's two days and two nights. Then what time was he found to be arisen? Early morning? That would make it one day and two nights.
But doesn't it say he rose on the third day? That doesn't translate into three days and three nights.
