This is not a wild ask—but it is something that hasn’t been resolved where I can see the resolution. I want to track my sleep data but I have no interest in setting an alarm or sleeping up to an alarm if avoidable. How do I keep my sleep data without an alarm?! This isn’t abnormal in human behavior—this has to be doable.

Hey there Melissuhann,
Thanks for reaching out to the Apple Support Communities.
To get started, it is definitely possible to track your sleep without setting up an alarm. While you will need to select a specific bedtime and wake up set (which can be edited anytime in the Clock app), you can still have the alarm disabled and your sleep tracked when asleep during this time, and even if you sleep past your selected wake up time.
For more details on tracking your sleep on your Apple Watch and iPhone, check out this link here: Track your sleep on Apple Watch and use Sleep on iPhone - Apple Support
If you have any other questions or concerns, reach out to Apple Support directly at this link here: Apple Support
We hope that's able to help.
Have a great day!
