I completely understand what you mean but we also have to understand it from a different side, new games and bonuses are managed by different teams so actually it wasn't something intentional. I suspect if the bonus is forced to be distributed on Friday there is a possibility that it will impact the weekly bonus for example miss calculation or link error, if you remember in the last 2 weeks there was a problem with the weekly bonus link which not work for some users well maybe this is one of the things to avoid.

I agree with @xLays even though we have to wait until Monday it is clear that the bonus is already on the schedule and one more thing we don't have many competitors to claim the drop code next Saturday
