I don't understand why so many people make such a big deal about this. I'm fine with switching; it's really not that damn big a deal. I don't whine and complain about petty stuff. Life's too short. People complain about EVERYTHING these days. Fatigue? People weren't complaining about fatigue when they were 23 and often ran on four-five hours of sleep because they were out late partying the night before. If it bugs you that much, or you are worried about "fatigue", just go to bed an hour earlier. This isn't rocket science folks. Manage it.
