I'm glad this was said, but I can't help but be afraid that new parents 
seeing this statement will read it to mean that if they switch to 
formula, they'll start getting more sleep, which is maybe the highest 
priority during that foggy first month or two of parenting.  I never 
know what to say when people say that formula-fed babies sleep through 
the night sooner (except to say that my breastfed girls slept through 
at 6 weeks or so, but that's not exactly scientific).
