Yes, that would be cheating.

If the vampire knows it is intended to be a no then it doesn’t matter. The person could never finish it as long as the vampire knows the real answer is no despite the words being stated not matching up.

No. It is magic so they would not be able to enter partway through an answer as doing so would make it clear that the vampire knew it was really a no.

Doesn’t work for everyone.

Some people always go to bed early and wake up early. They complain if they sleep on because it is too far from their natural sleep cycle.

Some people go to bed late and wake up late and getting up early sucks even if they get the same number of hours of sleep.

Some people can adjust. Maybe even the majority of people can adjust. Not everyone is able to adjust.

Nah, getting half a sleep cycle is worse than no sleep.

Knowing the right steps is not the same as doing them. That is only hypocritical if you judge others for what you won’t do. Otherwise it is just being self aware.
