Why can’t we go to sleep on demand like how we are controlling other parts of the body?

We can stop breathing when we want to. We can also “tell” our body to do what we want such as moving, holding, typing, etc. So why can’t we just “tell” our brain to go to sleep immediately instead of having to wait for it to fall asleep.

A caveman was once born with that ability and he didn’t get a chance to reproduce because a tiger ate him, because he decided to be asleep.

If you slowly fall asleep, you’re more likely to respond to stimuli and wake up, like a tiger coming to eat you.
