Sometimes, people develop relationships of all different kinds with the people they work with. Terminating someone's access at 4am instead so they don't get a chance to say goodbye to those people and those attachments is, well, I wouldn't say inhumane, but it's disrespectful to those connections that have been formed.

Giving people the chance to say goodbye and commit their in-progress work and save their personalized shell scripts to their personal devices, not to mention personal effects at their desk; little niceties like that, were lacking in layoffs elsewhere.
