Actually, it does make sense to re-enter a code again. If you pre ordered off of amazon for instance, you got your early access code within 24 hours. You could have cancelled your order at that point and kept the early access forever otherwise. Amazon doesn't cancel the pre order codes if you cancel the pre order. Early access codes aren't attached to the copy you bought and are getting whatsoever. They're treated separately. It's also why early access expires this Friday. This stops scammers who want to abuse the system.

It makes total sense for SE to not release the codes until midnight and require them to continue playing after Friday.
