It’s actually not, it’s only disabled by default. The speed up will only take affect the moment every single player is sleeping, so it’s not something you’d want in a massive public server with 73 players online, but for a small group of friends it works fine. Highly recommended, unless you like sitting around for 30 IRL minutes reading in the dark every night. Speaking of, one thing that IS exclusive to singleplayer is unfortunately the fast forward button, so reading really sucks and I always turn up skill gain speeds in MP.

It’s true that I took a bit of a shortcut in my previous statement, I shouldn’t have been so absolute.
And as a sidenote, I believe that I read somewhere that the intent of having sleep not activated by default in MP was also somewhat of a counter to not having timeskip, allowing players to “use” all of their available time (though as you said, you’re still just waiting so I’m not entirely convinced by the argument)
