'A good work ethic needs a good rest ethic' is the mantra I used in my 35+ year career - and it served me well.
Rukun's Lloyd vs Ricrads excerpt et al was pure magic - thanks for sharing. I heard Ram at the BIC sometime ago - I look forward to listening to your TSTU episode with him.
Mathew Walker's book is unfortunately a lot of hype with bad data. While we need to sleep, after you read his book, you will come away believing that every illness in the body is related to poor sleep. His book is considered a form of "churnalism" - to be taken with a big pinch of salt.
Agree with everything else you said. The more rested you are, the better is your productivity.
The idea of being under-rested resonates with me. I am the most productive on a Monday because over the weekends (no-school days), I sleep a little longer than usual, getting adequate rest.

There's a very nice takedown of the claims of his book on this blog:

Indeed, worth the read ✅🥰
Not everything is a click away. I have been looking for Dev Anand's Chargesheet for forever, and have been failing to find it. :P
It's weird. Whenever someone wishes me to have a good night's sleep, I go insomniac.
I guess it's the weight of expectation.
