Is that "arbitrary"? Sounds like it could indeed have reason behind it, doesn't it?
As in, we don't need a bunch of people released to the dark streets at midnight, let's wait a few hours so that it is daylight out, perhaps more resources are available to them at that time (buses, taxi's, places to get food, relatives to pick them up, etc).
Sounds like it could be reasonable to me.
