Spaceflight to far off places. It is simply ineffective to care for a crew if they can be frozen or suspended and revived in someway. Sleep is not only efficient, but a pleasant escape from a mundane life on the ship.
Sick with a disease that medicine doesn't have a cure for. Into the freezer you go. Born in an interim time after machine supremacy does all of the work, but we still haven't gone to the stars. Take a nap until its time to get there.
No, wakefulness is a nightmare and we can look at a couple of the plausible, not yet realities there. You committed a grievous personal space infraction when you waved an ugly hand at a woman. Court sentences you to 10 lifetimes in the re-education ward. Strapped to a chair watching wokeflix, juiced with chemicals make every moment stretch for an eternity. You come out of this stupor ten minutes later. This is a nightmare.
You are an inspiring labrat of the aristocracy. They want to upload their brains to their matrix, but someone needs to lead the way and prepare it for them. You are an Alfred program spending the next ten thousand years onboarding retards into the simulation. Every moment amplified by the processing power of your control unit, a second is an experience of a billion equivalent earth seconds.
