"Morning people" stuff tends to select for conscientiousness.

I say this as a serious night owl, and someone who is intellectually conscientious (I love learning and mastering) but traditionally not (it takes me a lot of effort to be organised and disciplined to a reasonable standard).

Feels like a PHB-holdover we should all be rightfully trashing as an anachronism. Also, how is this even supposed to benefit anyone in an age of geodistributed teams? Again, caring about what time someone gets up seems like a smell of an outdated organizational structure.
