For example, if your sleep period is eight hours and you sleep only six hours, you’ve missed two hours of sleep. You will suffer the effects of staying up late after only 12 hours: your usual 16-hour day, minus four hours (twice your hours of missed sleep).

So ... you'd go to sleep, wake up four hours early and be able to stay awake eight hours before suffering the effects of
Staying Up Late.
(16 - (4 * 2) ) = 8

That it produces decidedly non-human behaviors if applied as the human norm for a setting but that you've already stated that you are discarding realism in this case for the sake of playability. It looks playable.
