Does that mean that there's "dark" stages of sleep?

Post central sleep apnea is basically CSA that occurs during the NREM which are the light stages of sleep.

Not even close.

There may be some areas of CAP (cyclic alternating pattern). A cleaner study might be able to better determine that. CAP is a NREM phenomenon where sleep is generally unstable w/o scorable events in the "traditional" sense.

Are you familiar with UARS?
