i don't think you can! particularly if you already have trouble sleeping on these trains, lol at trying on a plane. the whole thing is that these let you sleep *while moving*. it's hotel+travel at once. it does depends on your specific sleep schedule. but 8-10pm to 8-9am seems mostly fine to me.

It’s still a low number in absolute terms, and it’s gotta be a recent high, not a historical one.

I mean I think the key difference here is intercity buses. In places like china there are still a ton of conventional night trains, but theyre priced and run to compete with buses. I think the US and Europe in part failed by looking to the wealthy and going for a staff heavy model

If we believe night trains are beneficial logistically (which under certain circumstances, e.g. favourable geography and network configuration, they are), it is perfectly sensible they are funded just like any other transportation, which means they don't necessarily need to make operating profit.
