Wakeful positive

Wakeful buys you more usable hours in every single day of the run.

Your character needs less sleep. Less time unconscious means more time looting, building and travelling — and fewer vulnerable sleep windows.

Useful immediately. Sleep is dead time and a danger window; cutting it down is pure tempo.

Consistent value. More waking hours means faster base-building and skill grinding across the whole run.

Steady. The benefit is the same on Day 200 as on Day 2 — a quietly efficient trait.

Sleeping is when a base breach becomes lethal. Less required sleep is a small but real safety improvement, not just a productivity one.

Yes. Two points for permanently more daytime is an easy purchase.
