I'd say it's always wasteful to heat the house at night.

Not when you stay up late and someone else gets up early.

In this case night generally means a time when people are in bed.

And a decent
system will compensate if it suddenly gets warm outside during the morning.

The point is that keeping the house warm overnight or heating it up in
the morning seems wasteful if the sun does the job by itself later in
the morning.

OK. So you prefer to freeze when getting up early?
