How Much Sleep Is Their Snoring Costing You?
Three numbers and the total comes out in whole nights. There is also a figure from the research on what changes when the snorer is treated.
Sleep lost to somebody else's snoring accumulates invisibly. Forty minutes here, an hour there, and no way to point at the total.
This puts a number on it. The figure that tends to land hardest is not the annual total but the research on what happens when the snorer gets treated.
Estimates are fine. The arithmetic is doing the work, not the precision.
