Outbound flights start in the morning after the airline has had the night to sort problems out. Return flights are usually in the evening when any problem during the day has compounded.

What OW said

So you can get sweet delta $$$!

Because they are secretly conspiring to keep you away from home as long as possible

Because weather systems are driven by differences in solar heating and evaporative patterns, and thus mostly occur in the afternoon or evening when most return flights are.
