... and I wonder why they choose the 14th by day, rather than the eve of the
15th. (IIRC, this was raised in the forum in the past and not yet answered)

The Darkei Chaim veSholom (Minhagei haMinchas Elozor) states that it is a
Minhag 'kol hatzadikim talmidei haBesht'. It also says that despite the fact
that achilas korban Pesach was at night - the start of the Mitzva was by day
-  've'ikar hu hahascholo'.

The Minhag Yisroel Torah brings this and more of a similar vein but also
writes that the Maharam Ash (IIRC, a talmid of the CS) and his FIL Rav Dovid
Deutsch had a Minhag of eating Matzos at night.(Lechoreh indicating that the
Minhag is lav davka from talmidei haBesht.)
