This is a common ground in scheduling with E2 as well, with the morning gap between both naps usually '''no longer than ~6h''' to ensure no excessive tiredness during the whole wake gap to be adaptable. The afternoon wake gap on DC1 and E2 (from the last nap of the day to the core) is usually tolerable even if they appear to be longer than the recommended length. Since it is deemed easier to stay awake during the day, up to '''9h wake''' is viable for the afternoon gap (for average individuals).

It is uncertain what the advantages of this scheduling would be compared to the traditional setup, where the second core is placed at hours that are virtually safe from any real life interruptions. However, some individuals do claim that a short nap around sunrise hours would give more chance for vivid dream recall than a core sleep, probably because of a higher percentage of REM sleep in a nap than in a core, and the period of REM that ends before awakening is likely shorter on a nap than on a core. '''Only one person has reportedly succeeded''' at adapting to this variant. The daytime core looks like that on Siesta, but it is questionable how it can be managed long-term, while a daytime nap is a lot more convenient to schedule.
