This made me smile more than expected. I would test it for 4 days before deciding. Glad you shared the messy version too.

I think the bad version of this advice causes a lot of frustration. It reminds me of a very specific conversation near the kitchen.

I am cheering for this update. The gentle constraint is probably the real story. People underestimate how much sleep changes the answer.

I get the appeal, though I would be careful calling it the best option. The Monday morning version is even more interesting.
