You're just considering "involuntary" lack of sleep, when there seems to be a serious epidemic of voluntary sleeplessness as indicated by frequent boasting about how little sleep one can get by on.

I like to boast about how much sleep I need to get! I can't function on less than 10 hours of sleep a night.
Both Ronald Reagan and Margaret Thatcher boasted of how little they needed to sleep. But two data points but highly salient ones.
Donald Trump too.
Yeah but he's probably making it up.
