Yes. Even with most of the examples given. Sure, there are exceptions to every rule. But allowing the warlock to say, "Oh, hours past, I was resting" also seems to mean that you would allow then to say "Oh, a wandering monster appeared, I was on guard duty so I'm not surprised."does your player have to 'intend' to rest at the beginning of the rest?
I guess if the party agrees that their default action is to rest when not doing anything else fine, but my default assumption is that people are on alert when not specifying anything else. Seems to be the same assumption that players in the games I've been in seem to assume as well. But if a group want's other assumptions, go with it.
