MonoCore-5

Warning: Schedule different than may be expected

This schedule differs significantly from older resources like polyphasic.net and polysleep.org
MonoCore-5 is a schedule with a 3h core and 4 naps. Unlike how the MonoCore series works until M4, now the core is no longer reduced with further naps added, leading M5 (and M4) to have the same core as M3. On many other resources, this reduction of core length continues until M5 instead, so this would have a 1.5h core.

Variant of M4.

Why is this a variant?

Unlike the jump from M3 to M4, the jump from M4 to this schedule changes very little of the mechanism and is in fact largely within the scheduling headroom of M4, other than there being one more nap around noon.
