This makes sense. If you aren't in a huge rush to reach your destination and can spend 2-3 days to let your orbit match the ISS. If launch windows were weeks or months apart, a couple days of catch-up orbiting might be okay. Though, if you can spend that same amount of time sitting on the ground and get there at roughly the same time, you'd waste less resources sustaining the crew in orbit, as well as reducing the "Ugh, are we there yet??" factor by a decent amount.
