The maths behind it

This tool uses Debt = (target hours × nights) − total slept. Clearing it over a week means adding debt ÷ 7 to each night. Every intermediate value is shown on screen, so the result can be checked by hand.

Debt is repaid gradually, not in one long lie-in — an extra hour a night for a week does far more than nine hours on Sunday, which mostly shifts your body clock. You also do not fully adapt to short sleep: measured performance keeps declining while you report feeling fine.
