One of the main factors in bedtime procrastination is human behaviour.

Come on, can you at least give us a better excuse? I have to wake up in 7 hours and I need someone else to blame for still not going to bed.

Writer Daphne K. Lee popularised the term in a Twitter post using the term "revenge bedtime procrastination" (報復性熬夜), describing it as "a phenomenon in which people who don't have much control over their daytime life refuse to sleep early in order to regain some sense of freedom during late night hours."[9][10]

I found this to be oddly relevant to my life.
