For some people, like me, minnight is really not appropriate :-)

I would be interested to hear "why" it would not be appropriate in your
case because perhaps you've got a scenario that might apply to me now or in

The reason not to start at midnight is that this timing schedule is set up to avoid cron hourly, daily, weekly, and monthly to run at the same time. And it usually does not matter *when* it happens, as long *as* it happens.
