I do not like that comparison - even jokingly - because it sends a
wrong message. Sometimes it's really better to sleep things over. You
usually notice the next day when you find out that the "solution"
created new issues of its own. I'm not saying Christopher did in this
case but I would certainly not recommend to resolve all issues before
going to sleep. :-)

Cheers
