Again, I'm not under the illusion that everyone will suddenly defend with 2 or 3 fleets a night when prelaunch is removed. Just that the fleets that
are at home can be put to use before the player goes to bed, as opposed to going to waste because the player isn't around when the attacks finally show up.

The game mechanics have created the player preference. If my defence fleets were sitting idly at home because I'm not around when they're needed, then sure, I'd launch as many attack fleets as I could too.
