Oh yeah.
The original question.
Boy, that Jeff can really throw a thread off track, can't he?
As RERAs are the component that makes the AHI an RDI, I suppose it would have been more appropriate to word the question thusly:
Is a high RDI bad?

Yes.
TS, since

perhaps one of the initial posters may have offered some appropriate advice:

While I hate to disagree with anyone (HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!), actually, I don't believe you do (or can). After a review of your previous 139 posts (especially those in
Status Report (If Anyone Cares), "IMHO" you're overly-sensitive and prone to aggressive, self-defeating behavior.

I would (respectfully)
absolutely and totally disagree with that. AAMOF, if someone was going to comment about someone else's situation,
not "gleaning" through all available information for clinical "nuggets" would be negligent.
TS, while reviewing data, there was some interesting history in re: what amounts to insufficient sleep (~4-5 hour periods). Now, "IMHO", if you take someone with AHI 131 and blow it down to 0.0, one would think they should be sleeping like a rock. That they are not suggests co-morbidity that generates insomnia (anxiety, anger, etc.). "Punching someone out" is not an acceptable solution to "coming on" (assuming that's what it was) to someone's wife, and whether it was meant to impress readers (I wasn't) or a threat that would have potentially been carried out (and if so, then you've got a BIG problem, and then move all the way over to "self-destructive behavior"), it at least gives a clue to underlying issue(s) that may prevent adequate/sufficient sleep.
