Damned if you do, damned if you don't. https://www.newsmax.com/health/health-n ... d/1221459/
All I know is without it, I can wake up gasping for air.

This is mostly alarmist bullshit. The study showed that people with larger changes in heart rate due to apneic events will benefit more than those with minimal changes in heart rate during sleep.
Conclusions: The protective effect of CPAP in patients with CAD and OSA without excessive sleepiness was modified by the ΔHR. Specifically, patients with higher ΔHR exhibit greater cardiovascular benefit from CPAP therapy.

Do not regret growing older. It is a privilege denied to many...

It takes less time to do a thing right than to explain why you did it wrong.

Yep, as long as they're making money, everything else can be thrown under the bus. Assholes.
