Another great boon of non-reducing version is that sleepers do not have to be confined to a specific duration of daytime core length, as long as it's no shorter than ~50m (to differentiate with E1). and can be as long as ~2h. Thus, non-reducing Siesta has a lot of flexibility in scheduling, and heavily favors natural wakes (e.g, 60m daytime core one day, and ~80-90m core the next day). It is also not a requirement to sleep at the exact same hours everyday for both sleeps even when adapting (though consistency of sleep times is great). The goal is to ensure there is no sleep reduction from monophasic baseline to get as much productivity during the day as possible (for events or circumstances that require sharp decision-making and/or focus like examinations).

Siesta sleep has long been considered a golden sleep schedule due to its prevalence and astoundingly well-rounded core sleeps. However, due to the hectic lifestyles today, managing a daytime core is very difficult. This in return decreases the popularity of Siesta and it pales in comparison with its counterpart E1. However, work-from-home or flexible school/work hours can enable the Siesta daytime core to put in work. Over the years a lot of polyphasic sleepers have attempted Siesta, despite its inherently disadvantageous daytime core compared to the daytime nap of E1 and have enjoyed their success. After adaptation, the whole schedule can become flexible by flexing one or both core sleeps with small increments.
