Hope you're having a fantastic day!

Do you think Herbert avoids sleeping not only because his reagent eliminates the need for sleep, improving his overall efficiency, but also out of fear of the night terrors of Gruber's death that plague him?

He's in SO MUCH denial. Yes, he can accept that Gruber is, in fact, DEAD, but he's completely hooked on the idea that he could have changed the outcome.
