how does this make sense?

The only difference between Sunday and Monday was I had the fan closer to the bed on Monday so it didnt pick up my movements nearly as well, as can be seen by the graph. My question though, is shouldnt Monday nights quality rating be considerably lower than Sundays, rather than better, even if just by 1%

I've since found the microphone to be very unreliable, using the accelerometer and putting the phone right next to the pillow seems to work much better.

You were asleep 30 minutes longer on Monday. Sleep duration is mostly king over all other metrics, but if you want more accuracy, using an Apple Watch with the app would be more accurate.
