Left the butter out overnight and it actually worked out

Last Tuesday I forgot to soften butter for a birthday cake and just left it on the counter overnight by accident. I woke up at 6am stressed, but it was perfectly soft and the cake came out so fluffy. Now I'm wondering if I should always plan ahead like this or if it's just asking for trouble in the summer heat. Has anyone else tested the overnight butter method with success or horror stories?

Oh the little accidents are just life's way of teaching us that half the stuff we stress about is optional...
