They don't have to be. Your car is commuting ~1 hour per day, at work ~8 hours/day, and at home ~15 hours/day. Why should it happen to pick the first 4 hours of that time at home to start charging? Any sane software would randomly distribute charging times through the off-peak hours. (Not to mention all the folks who can charge at work.)
