I'll push this one step further: why is our entire society built around the idea that sleep literally doesn't matter?
- Elementary school starting so early all the kids are half asleep in class.
- College + Sleep? Not gonna happen.
- 24 hour construction in certain part of NYC, check!
- Most cities quiet hours are very precisely 8 hours. Hope your days start at 6:30/7:00 and you're falling asleep precisely at 11pm, and all your neighbors do the same!
- Having attention deficit? Lets start with ADHD medecine, not with a sleep study, no sir.
- Bazillion jobs requiring on call, waking people up at all manner of time, as a standard thing.
- Neighbors woke you up? Toughen up bro!
- Myth around how so many people apparently can do just fine on 5 hours of sleep.
The hospital thing is just a symptom of a society built around lack of respect for sleep. No one seems to consider it an important thing. If you're drowsy because you couldn't sleep, it's considered a minor inconvenience and little more.
