I have back up iron sights on my rifle, but at night, when you wake up suddenly, it is hard to focus even with adrenaline pumping. I tried that as an experiment. I unintentionally had less than enough sleep and tried to get up for work, then the thought occurred to me to see what if I am getting up reacting to an intruder? So I did a live drill where I tried to find my rifle, grab it and aim it at the door. I found that while I was still trying to wake up and focus, I could only see the red dot. So a red dot is very helpful.
