Without knowing the OP's purpose, I don't see how you can make that
claim. I don't see how your result is any more "logically sound" than
what the OP asked for. Frankly, I am suspicious of the OP's motives.
I suspect she doesn't want either result.

Be that as it may, I think the following straight-forward formula,
albeit a mouthful, provides exactly the result that the OP is looking
for, for whatever reason, where B1 and B2 are the start and end dates:

=OR( AND(2=MONTH(DATE(YEAR(B1),2,29)),
B1<=DATE(YEAR(B1),2,29),
DATE(YEAR(B1),2,29)<=B2),
AND(2=MONTH(DATE(YEAR(B2),2,29)),
B1<=DATE(YEAR(B2),2,29),
DATE(YEAR(B2),2,29)<=B2) )

And I'm surprised that Bob did not offer the following alternative:

=(SUMPRODUCT(--(2=MONTH(DATE(YEAR(B1:B2),2,29))),
--(B1<=DATE(YEAR(B1:B2),2,29)),
--(DATE(YEAR(B1:B2),2,29)<=B2)) 0)

Both approaches rely on the OP's assurances that the start and end
dates are within 366 days of each other.

Note to the OP: If you are trying to decide whether to use 365 or 366
as a factor in some computation (e.g. daily interest rate), I don't
believe your simple criterion is sufficient. And if you have some
other reason for trying to decide between 365 and 366, I suggest that
you post your purpose. There might be more tractable ways of
achieving your purpose.

Unless I am reading your request incorrectly, I do not get either Kostis
nor Bob's formulas producing the correct results. Where your results are

TRUE TRUE FALSE TRUE

I get both of theirs as returning

TRUE FALSE TRUE FALSE

Both of these posts answer the question but Bob's is easier for me to
understand.

I need to identify whether a date range contains a leap year day -
2/29. I
have a start date and end date and leap year True/False indicator

Start Date 01/01/08 01/01/08 03/31/08 06/30/07

End Date 12/31/08 06/30/08 12/31/08 03/01/08

Leap Year? TRUE TRUE FALSE TRUE

I can say that the range must be (will be) less than or equal to
365/366.
