Y'know, it's not fully accurate. It totally disrupts sound sleep, lol
If it's switched off?
Funny enough, there were complaints of people's sleep being effected by the switch electric lights. Because theyd gotten used to sleeping in a room with some amount of carbon monoxide and other toxic off gasses from burning things like kerosene.
That hit me like a much much worse version of the XKCD comic about somebody's workflow and "please add an option to re-enable spacebar heating."
"I am set in my ways and find that my routine maintains my humours most divinely. Please just re-enable sleepy time CO, sandman soot, and funny fumes."
I mean, not my default unless you're really bad with loose, bare wiring.
