I'd actually be kinda hesitant of such pills and would need to think it out. The version of me that is in those 15 minutes might be a bit unhappy about the situation, for one thing.
Such pills do exist in the real world: a lot of sleeping pills have similar effects, as does consuming significant amounts of alcohol.
For that matter, so does falling asleep in the normal way.
And it basically results in 15 minutes of experience that simply "go away"? no gradual transition/merging into the mainline experience, simply 15 minutes that get completely wiped?
eeew.
