I've looked at a lot of the links provided in the first post, and everyone seems to set up biphasic sleeping as one nap and then a core period. If someone is aiming for 6 hours sleep/day, why not just do two 3-hour periods?

People mention having no problems with alertness or concentration, but I'm wondering if people have noticed a difference in higher intellectual functioning, for example someone who does nuclear physics or a similar field, are there any noticeable differences?
