6 hour core?

Anyone ever try a 6 hour core and 1 nap? I know it seems silly, but if you could turn 7.5 hours into 6.5 hours and have an extremely flexible relaxing 20 minute nap wherever in the day, it seems pretty good. This would be considered a siesta, but usually people take those in excess of 20 minutes so I'm curious if 6 hours + 20 minutes could yield REM sleep during the nap.

so flexible that the nap can be pretty much anytime, as long as there
is at least 4 hours between it and the core sleep. I've used that
schedule several times in the past, sometimes for as little as a
month, sometimes for several months running, depending on what I've
needed to do with work and other commitments. While it is technically
polyphasic, I tended not to think of it that way, though; I think
because it is is so easy to adapt to (it never took me more than a
week to change from Monophasic to biphasic).
