Holy shit!! This is the advanced pillow science I like to hear! I'm gonna try this right now!

Lol, glad you like it.

For some greater details, I've recently switched to shredded foam fill pillows. With the slant stack method, they kinda form into wedge shapes, adding support to keep the structure in place. The top sinks down to hold the pulled out bottom one out, and it keeps the bottom tier fluffy when I work my way down to sleeping in that.

I don't think that'd work quite as good with traditional polyfill pillows or solid foam slabs. I do feel I've had less neck pain this way though, and it worked ok with the limp ass pillows I had at a recent hotel stay.

A third pillow is propped on the nightstand for when I want to sit up in bed. That one goes almost vertical against the headboard.
