(1) Is it?   When Shavuos did not happen to be on the 6th of Sivan, did
they say Zman Matan Toraseinu anyway?

(2) If we were defining ZMT by its relationship to the omer then 
aderaba, the Torah was given on the 51st day of the omer (yetzias 
mitzrayim was on a Thursday and Matan Torah on a Shabbos), so davka the 
second day would be the real ZMT, and in EY they should not be saying
ZMT at all!
