Its not an oversight. They're doing it exactly as they want to.

Stress testing the servers by compressing the log ins.

...at time they can expect the highest potential participant count.

True. Without a doubt, one of the main goals of the beta from Bungie's end is to stress test as many components of the game (ideally to and even past breaking point), but the 2pm PDT kickoff for everything isn't that convenient for those outside of the continental US. But, for the beta, I can understand why they're picking that time. That being said, as a Brit with a job and family commitments, it would be a shame if all the awesomeness is concentrated into a couple of 2 hour chunks that are either very late in the evening (10pm) or in the early hours of the morning (3am) when Destiny hits the shelves in September. I completely appreciate that the vast majority of their player base will be in the US, but it wouldn't hurt to make sure those across either the Atlantic or Pacific have the same opportunity to take part in limited time events. Just my 2 pence / $0.0341541!
