Came here to say exactly this. I'm not sure what the issue here is, it doesn't matter what time you depart as long as doors are open by the scheduled arrival time, surely? What I imagine would be really frustrating for passengers is if due to operations mentioned above, doors are consistently opening 30-40 minutes later than the arrival time. After all, people use the arrival time for planning onward transport and so on. This feels like a non-issue for me.
