This feels incredibly hand wavy. I moved to Spain from the UK last year and one of the huge benefits for me is that the hours feel far more natural. I tend to go out fairly late in the evenings (usually 1 or 2), get up earlyish (around 9:30) and then crash for a bit in the afternoon. I naturally tend towards this cycle but obviously in the UK it's a bit difficult (no siesta and the pubs tend to shut about 11:30).
With regards to time spent at home, the Spanish seem to spend a far greater portion of their normal lives socialising. I really don't see how more time spent at home could be listed as a positive thing. In the UK it makes me think of long cold winters when no one wants to leave the house because it's so miserable outside.
