I wish it tracked a little different

I've had sleep problems since I was born (34 now) and I've tried other sleep trackers, obviously Fitbit is the most accurate, because it's attatched to my skin, but there's one caveat I have:

I like that it does the "sensitive" setting, but I wish it called it "deep sleep" rather than just "sleep" and considered the "restless" time to be "light sleep".  Because I DO sleep 8 hours, and it always says 3.5 or something around there which seems really innacurate, though I know it's correct in it's own way. (Also, I never hit my goal of 8 hours.  But I guess you could go around that by changing your goal time to something really low.)

 

Is there some reason other sleep trackers differentiate it between "deep" or "REM" and "light" but consider you asleep the whole time, but Fitbit considers it "asleep" and "restless" and DOESN'T count the "restless" as sleep at all?

I know that my original setting was on "sensitive" and I was getting the same - about 3 - 4 hours "sleep" per night, and i have just changed my sleep sensitivity to normal and it's definitely more accurate looking in respect of restlessness etc.
