I think what Halldor means that it is counterintuitive to have the
weekday labels positioned at midnight. The attached example figure
shows a week's worth of data, and from a quick glance you'd imagine
that the peaks occur at night, while they really are in the afternoon.
Aligning the labels' left-hand side with the ticks would help a
little, but not nearly as much as having the labels centered between
the ticks.
