I have not empirically tried to get down in the dark/sleepy w/ the
shelf deployed, but I believe there is plenty of room to get down.
If one is very unstable in those situations, you could flip the shelf
up to give you all the room you need, if you took whatever you had on
the shelf off?

light, water bottle, books, portable toilet, etc. if you remember
that it is there!
