​​​​​​ Yes yes, very reasonable. Precisely my thoughts at the time.

Yet I plan to try and sleep dressed in UL base layer, based on the assumption that it is skin oil rather than perspiration that is what we're trying to mitigate. (Talked to my wife about this. She showed me tights meant for yoga, that weigh nothing, pack the size of a lemon, and are surprisingly warm - she uses them for running on chilly days.)
