I think the point of this issue is that the miles in any given day driven to/from your home (to your workplace) are considered commuting miles and not a business expense....you're going to/from work like anyone else and such miles are not deductible. The miles driven during the work day...after you've started work until you've finished work, are what is deductible.
I think salesmen often make their first and last stops of the day near their home to maximize deductible mileage.
