If you do know, then it is only because you have some form of tracking "device." A partner with whom you sleep, a camera, a device like this, or something I don't know about (but would like to know about). Because unless you're some kind of nonhuman you don't know anything more about your own sleep than any other human. Who all sleep through their sleep.Of course I do.

Wow. This gives me hope. Thanks so much for writing this because so much of what you describe is also me...I’m not sure if you’re being purposefully disingenuous or if you’re asking a legitimate question. I’ll give you the benefit of the doubt and assume the latter.
If I set my alarm for 8am, my Withings Aura might wake me up at 7:53am or at 7:59am according to my predetermined range. A period of deep sleep typically lasts about 10 minutes or less. There are other stages of sleep prior to that but what you don’t want is to be startled awake while in that critical REM period.
I have my alarm tolerance set 30 minutes. It’ll usually start waking me up 20 minutes prior to my alarm by raising the temperature in my room, gradually brightening the lights and then close to the end of my REM cycle, start playing music. It knows that once I start moving, I’m out of sleep paralysis and ready to wake up and at that time, plays the alarm tone.
I’ve never had any real trouble sleeping but I’ve always considered myself to not be a morning person because I’d always wake up feeling like I didn’t sleep well and always needed to hit snooze. My whole life has been organized around not being a morning person. Ever since having a sleep analyzer, I often wake up feeling rested and ready to get out bed. I now wake up early every day even though I don’t have to.
