The polyphasic sleep schedule was aligned with darkness, not random times throughout the day. Daylight was far too valuable for that.

- ozlikethewizard 6mo agoThis varies, you still see some polyphasic sleep in countries that have very hot middle of the days, Greece + Spain off the top of my head. An intentional waste of daylight because the cooler mornings and evenings are better, but industrialisation has still reduced the frequency of these practices.
