Peter, that is not unreasonable. Learning to use a new system slows things up a lot, and giving yourself some room to recover during the day makes sense. We did not do that, for the same reason I don't go into a cold lake slowly when I want to swim. We wanted to get the pain over with as soon as possible. But I can't fault the guy who wants to get in more slowly.
