Yeah I'm weirded out by that as well. On our platform engineering team, the "early rising" crew is usually up and working at 7 - 7:30. Some guy needed the afternoon hours for personal reasons and started working at like 6:30 for two or three months.

Personally I like to start working around 8, so I can triage the monitoring while the brain runs through the last boot processes and unit activations so I can use those (for me) very productive hours between 9 and 12.
