> waking up 3 hours before everybody else is the smartest thing you can do because you get an extra 3 hours on everybody else

Perhaps it's not "extra" hours, it's time you can use productively vs time you can't.

Three completely uninterrupted hours in the morning while everyone else is asleep vs three hours in the evening while everyone is is awake?

To actually concentrate on something important, I'd always pick the former.

I do my best work after 22:00, when it's quiet. In the morning, I usually can't get anything done.

Everybody else in my household goes to bed before 22:00 and wakes up early - so there's fewer interruptions for me if I work at night. I find the quiet and cooler temperatures much more productive, too - but this could be a geographical thing
