So I should wake up at 6 AM. But... I have to shower, have breakfast, etc, etc. That would take 30 minutes, but maybe I lose track of time, so I should consider at least 1 hour. Ok, maybe 2 hours is better, in case something goes wrong. Let's set the alarm clock on 4 AM."
In such a situation I know I could technically wake up at 7:30 AM, and 6:30 AM would be a good and still safe compromise... but I just can't. I get all worried about it, and I just prefer to wake up at 4 AM, thinking at least I can have a quiet and calm preparation instead of a hurried one.
You got some 1DNe examples too?
