My position - explained extensively - is that adventuring is not resting. However, given the RAI as we have it, I suggest that quibbling over whether 2 of the 8 hours  of "rest" are an hour of light activity and an hour of strenuous (roughly) is of low value. Why bother? A DM might just focus on the toothier requirement that characters must fit 6 hours of unconsciousness into 8 hours.As to 24 hours. I don't understand the fight you are picking here. My wording makes the intent crisp: a character can benefit from a long rest only once in each 8+16 hour (24 hour!) period. Per RAI, characters have always been able to sit around for a day and kick-off fresh tomorrow.</blockquote>
