There are more activities that would have to be worked around the Wednesday before. There's an order to things, and every step needs time to complete, e.g., rigging goes up first, field goes up after the riggers are out of the way, inspection stations get setup when the inspectors get off work for the day.

After field setup and checkout we usually do a volunteer dinner, followed by final training and setup of the inspection areas. We're still getting our act together the night before.
The roadies are usually still setting up the things that come last, like running power cables for the pits. Having teams milling around would make their jobs miserable.

Not to say it isn't doable, just don't imagine it's as easy as pie...
