There are three types of night owls:

- Normals or larks that are currently functioning as night owls because of caffeine, late blue light exposure, lack of sunlight exposure, et cetera

- Night owls made much worse because of caffeine etc.

- Unaffected night owls who think they are normal. 11PM-7AM sleep is now considered normal.

The article refers to the second category. I was the first.




You recognize what category you're in. A lot of people who don't and have 'become' morning people think it's just a matter of discipline.
