The demand for overnight far outstrips the demand for day flights. If BA had unlimited slots at LHR, then perhaps, instead of two flights on 747s/380s, they would consider a mixture with 787s being added for the day flights. But they don't, so they won't. The same comments apply to the CPT route also.
