It could guess and or extrapolate, based on recent data.

For a lot of people it would be effective.

Nest is already pretty effective at learning schedules

Nest doesn't have to be accurate to the minute to be effective. A reminder based on before I leave work would be.

For instance, if I don't know what time aim getting off of work and I wanted a reminder to call my wife when I got to the car, it could do that completely accurately based on phone connecting to the car. It could only guess about doing something before I left work.
