Yeah, but make sure you do sleep enough. I neglected sleep for years, sleeping for 2-4 hours a day - on average, with sometimes 2-3 days without sleep at all - and I though I was doing fine. When it finally caught up to me I had a major epilepsy episode at the office, which was not nice. I since started to value a solid 8-9 hours sleep much more than before. This "much" of sleep is probably not really needed, but right now I'd rather be safe than (even more) sorry. YMMV ofc, but just keep in mind the dangers when deciding to sleep less to do something else.

I completely disagree, for me, anyway. I was a child that chose to sleep instead of open Santa presents on Christmas. I am most definitely more productive when I can start my day late - enough that when working overnight, my mother noticed a positive difference in my happiness level. When possible, I test myself every few years to see if it has changed: Both ways I can get enough sleep, but timing my sleep to fit the correct time of day for me helps tremendously.

The only thing that might motivate me to wake earlier in this situation is to search for a job that didn't try to suck my brain away - very worthwhile.
