Many people might have the advantage. Or, more likely, it's not as punishing in the short term as GURPS says it is. OTOH, running short a couple of hours of sleep a night over the course of years (and extra sleep in the weekend does not counter this) is not good for you. It does bad things to your immune system, and most other systems in the body as well.
