* A 4.5h core also validates the '''later start time'''. Unlike E3's core, on E3-extended the core can start at midnight, or even some time after midnight (the naps will have to be rotated along). More awake time in the evening is what many people are after, and this is an advantage compared to most multi-core schedules.

* E3-extended can become '''very flexible after adapting''', with the possibility to transition to '''SEVAMAYL''' as the most ideal base schedule. The core duration, which can cover a decent amount of REM sleep, puts less pressure on the naps to achieve the same task, and naps can then be flexed to great extents while still fulfilling the remnant REM requirements. The ability for the core to receive natural wakes after adaptation has also been noted, with the reduction to ~'''4h core duration''' as a result of many weeks staying adapted.

* Furthermore, E3-extended supports heavy physical exercises a lot better than E2, thanks to the addition of a nap for possible REM sleep. This will then create more space in the core for more SWS.
 
* The '''ideal scheduling''' of E3-extended would have a nap around early morning hours, noon/early afternoon and late afternoon to fit into regular occupations (e.g, 9-to-5). The wake gap between the first nap and the core can be as low as 3h, and up to ~4.5h. The last nap can be as late as ~6 PM as long as all SWS is guaranteed in the core. Because of having 3 naps, E3-extended does not have much variation in scheduling as the naps are mostly locked into these convenient spots of the day.
