 As a social species, should we not all be synchronized and  therefore awake at the same time to promote maximal human interactions? Perhaps not. Humans likely evolved to co­sleep  as families or even whole tribes, not alone or as couples.  Appreciating this evolutionary context, the benefits of such 
genetically programmed variation in sleep/wake timing  preferences can be understood. The night people in the group  would not be going to sleep until one or two a.m., and not  waking until nine or ten a.m. The morning people, on the  other hand, would have retired for the night at nine p.m. and  woken at five a.m. Consequently, the group as a whole is  only collectively vulnerable (i.e., every person asleep) for just  four rather than eight hours, despite everyone still getting the  chance for eight hours of sleep. That’s potentially a 50 percent  increase in survival fitness. Mother Nature would never pass on  a biological trait — here, the useful variability in when  individuals within a collective tribe go to sleep and wake up —
that could enhance the survival safety and thus fitness of a  species by this amount. And so she hasn’t.
