> Sunlight in your eyes within 30 minutes of waking up.

I live in Florida - our license plates don’t call it the sunshine state for nothing - but even here the sun doesn’t rise at 5am. Short of blasting my retinas with bright lights soon after reveille, I don’t see where I’m going to obtain sunlight this early in the morning.

(It’s 07:21 local time now, and the sun is just now coming up. It’ll be a beautiful sunrise, but I’ve already been awake 2.5 hours…)

Well, yes, waking up in the the middle of the night is not great for your ability to have a normal sleep schedule.
I don't think many would consider 5 am to be the middle of the night, nor does it make sense to change how much you sleep with the seasons
