And the substantial percentage of OSA sufferers who aren't and won't be aware for many years (if ever) they have a problem requiring medical intervention because they aren't regularly aroused enough to know or have cognition of what they are doing in their sleep and don't fit the prototypical clinical 'mold' for OSA that was defined 25 years ago (and is no longer considered reliable)?

People who snore a lot know that they snore at a lot. People who can't breathe near cats know that they can't breathe near cats.
