Midnight used to be the middle of the night, hence the name. Now it's when you think "Oh, I'll just check twitter one more time"

Try telling a modern person you go to bed at 8 and wake up 4. They'll look at you like you're insane.

Speak for yourself. I try and sleep by 10 every night, unless I'm socialising, then get up at 6am.
That’s still far from the middle of the night for you.
