A lot has been made about this, but I think it's there for a reason, and it speaks to the content of the trailer as a whole: This is not just about telling a story, it's about creating a Cyberpunk world. This wasn't a cinematic trailer, it was a "world" trailer like the ones Rockstar did for GTA5 and RDR2's reveals, and showing that this is a large, diverse world that exists as a simulated place, not just a particular dark, rainy moment in an alley. Showing daytime adds to the versimilitude of the world as a whole, even if it might run counter to the more cinematic leanings we're used to in these stories.
