The science shows clearly that jet lag can be reduced the sooner that passenger acclimates to the destination time zone. So besides being gross, serving breakfast at 3pm just prolongs jet lag.
That may be your opinion, and of course you can decline a second meal service, but there may be others who are expecting a second pre-arrival meal.
