Because this was Christmas night and Burke had new toys to keep him occupied. He also got up early that day (not actually early for him) to open presents.
I don't see a sexual rage as much of an issue as sibling rage. JB was known to annoy Burke when he was playing with his legos. Imagine you're trying to master a great new toy, you're all excited about getting it done, and your stupid baby sister decides to play Godzilla again.
BoldBear,
That's if that's how things were. Your scenario might happen if its not BDI All, and the parents stage a sexual assault on JonBenet, to mask BR's sibling rage?
Some the contusions and abrasions, e.g. those on her face might be the result of being repeatedly whacked with the flashlight or similiar object?
Maybe BR dragged her down to the basement causing the abrasions?
The point being its not really an accident or even blunt force trauma arriving via impulse rage, since you have the sexual assault?
Without the sexual assault much of Kolar's case evaporates. With the sexual assault, you have blunt force trauma as a means to enact it.
Given BR and JonBenet's history sexual assault followed by blunt force trauma does not make much sense, i.e. its not required.
It looks like its BDI All, as per Kolar, or BDI Partial with Patsy faking a sexual assault and ligature asphyxiating JonBenet?
Accepting the latter more or less engenders PDI with the possibility that BR has been staged into the crime-scene by Patsy?
