&gt; As someone that has experimented with polyphasic sleep, I&#x27;d like to see some studies designed in such a way that they mirror what people actually do when they switch to one of these schedules. That is to say allow for an adjustment period.<p>Fwiw, I agree with you in so far as your logic goes.<p>However, as it can would be fatal based on the main stream understanding of how sleep deprivation works, I can&#x27;t say I&#x27;d support such a study since it would likely kill at least one person and&#x2F;or otherwise fuck up their health seriously.
