One thing that struck me as odd -- and a bit absurd-- is how many times you repeated that sleep is *necessary*. I have to ask: are people really *that* far gone, mentally speaking, in 2025, that this is even a question? I never heard anything to the contrary, never heard anything about sleep BUT that it is necessary, when I was young. I would never have thought to do an experiment to prove it, myself. Since our bodies naturally do it, doesn't that, in itself, demonstrate that we need it?
Great post. I'm going to have my students read it when I lecture on sleep.
