Sure. but the argument I (poorly) made was that screen time on its own might not be the only thing affecting sleep time/quality. Think about it this way: if you keep the same amount of screen time, but also do the other things (time playing outside, reading books/comics, playing with in person with friends, etc) then you would prob get the same quality sleep. The thing is that people tend to use screen time as a replacement of those activities. That's IMHO the biggest problem.
As a parent of a 2.5yo toddler, I'm not restricting screen time to my son at all, because I want him to get used to them: screens and computers will inevitably be in his life. But I also make sure to play board games with him, read books and let him have actual play time outside in the park with other kids.
