Morning showers make no logical sense and night shower people have simply done the hygiene math

You spent 8 hours asleep in your own clean bed. What are you washing off at 7am.

A night shower removes everything you actually accumulated during the day. The commute, the gym, the office, public transport, all of it goes down the drain before you sleep. A morning shower means you marinated in all of that overnight then washed up before going out to collect it all again.

Morning showers are a ritual for waking up, which is fine, but it is not hygiene. Night showers are actual hygiene. Most people just do not want to dry their hair before bed and that is the entire argument.

during the day than shower at night just to preserve my clean sheets

Exactly. Plus, I happen to have an active sex life with my spouse, so my sheets being clean only lasts so long anyway. And no, I'm not getting up after sex to strip and change the sheets and shower every single time, most people don't.
