The point was not to give offense, but clearly the fixed-scheduling scheme _is_ broken and _does not_ work well for any installation that's not running on a continuous basis, and that's a lot of systems.
But the system was never completely fixed time. It was always set up to run on the first opportunity after a reboot if the system wasn't up in the middle of the night. The present system is broken though, since if the scripts are run at noon they will continue to get run at noon. This is not a good idea.
