I mean the data lacks any person's sleep history, but if there is a cohort of bad sleepers, as a group you get a collective pseudo-history (because altough study is done at the same time they are in different life stages) that is no-one's history but might track the average well for that cohort AND take into consideration more than a week.

In the similar way sampling the height of 1000 of 1M people will give you a good estimate of the average.

Airwallex, Stripe, Wise,

Direct bank transfer (which above will support OR just a regular bank)

The assumption is what you do when awake those extra hours is more productive (or fun of whatever you are aiming for...) than asleep.

Sleeping you has the disadvantage it cannot keep score. Wake you has "I completed X today and Y yesterday". Advocate for sleeping you!

Yes. Any statistics buffs here who can tell me:

Is 500k brits for 1 week as good as 5k brits for 100 weeks.

Effectively with so much data aren't you getting a superposition anyway.
