If Starlight’s snoring kept Trixie awake and Trixie’s sleep talking kept Starlight awake how come one of them didn’t sleep outside

From 8x19. I always thought that when I watched the episode.

I think the bigger question is how did either of them manage to sleep at all or even wake up from the other when doing such slumberous activities?

I think whenever Starlight drifted off she would start snoring so Trixie would wake her up. Then Trixie could sleep but she would start talking and then Starlight would wake her up. Then it was like that back and forth for the whole night.

Better question is, why didn’t anypony bring any earplugs?

Also a good argument. There also should be a spell to shut somepony up.

Starlight probably could use her magic to solve this problem, like she did with many other problems. For example, create a soundproof bubble around herself. Oh well, the conflict had to happen, so such things got overlooked.

Chicken and the Egg problem. If both couldn't sleep from the other one already sleeping, why weren't they awake?

The visual of Starlight Glimmer floating downstream on an air mattress as Trixie sleeps peacefully in her wagon is now something

I cannot stop picturing.

That would be a good option...if they were on a camping trip and came appropriately prepared. Earlier in the episode, Starlight wanted to stay at a luxury inn and both of them placed an emphasis on "coziness". They're not burly stallions setting out to test themselves against nature, they enjoy luxuries and want to enjoy themselves a comfy bonding trip.

Weren't they parked in a desert?  Because sleeping outside wouldn't be the option, as the desert night is extremely cold

Which came first the snoring Starlight or the Sleeptalking Trixie?

Or were they in a superposition? (that's quantum mechanics)

Oh yeah, in amending fences when twilight is trying to talk to moon dancer she literally makes a soundproof bubble. They could’ve done that
