But worth reminding people intermittently :-)

But no matter how much you say it, no matter how many studies you do, the general response from the public is "meh" mixed with "no, they'll just go to bed later and won't learn anything".

(I am maybe a bit of an extreme example,but I am best for work from 7am - 2pm,can do routine stuff up to about 4-5pm and extremely useless actively harmful after that. For the record, I was actually the same as a teenager! Those at uni with me will recall)

Actually if I understand correctly (not a dead cert) neuroscience suggests that your pattern is the wisest in adults to take advantage of mental capacity.

This must I think be a universal truth. I was in a meeting at 6.30am. At 9am I’ll wake my mother, who will stagger downstairs at about 11.15am.
That said, I think there are genuine neuroscientific reasons why an earlier pattern would in general be more productive than a later one. It might vary with the work. I have it vaguely in my head that tasks are done best in the first eight hours of waking but we can be more creative in the second eight hours. I’ll have a look if I get time.

(I am very aware that I owe you a reply on a different conversation. We were all ill for about a month after my mum's visit, and work has been ridiculous the last few weeks, but fingers crossed I will get some brain space soon!)

There's really no hurry. If and when the moment feels right.
I have no idea how I was going to finish the sentence "All the same...".

Goes without saying.
