They probably run the APU so long because the passenger(s) are not on time. Or they have a "sliding" departure time and need to be ready (FP loaded, cabin cooled, etc) to go whenever the pax do appear. Or they're doing a database update on the avionics (which can take a while especially in older planes). Or they're setting up catering, cleaning the cabin, or a dozen other reasons.
So that's how the problems of the 2% become our problems!
