Why do people need CPAP machines, why can't you simply sleep on your side? Most primates instinctively know how to sleep in the best positions (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1119282/) humans insist on sleeping on their backs which other primates instinctively know is dangerous.

Because they have issues which require CPAP machines.
If I sleep on my side, the apnea situation improves slightly, but it does not go away at all. Do you think that people would prefer to deal with a bulky and unconfortable machine, as well as doctor appointments, if they could simply sleep on their sides?
I think CPAP users are getting scammed, just sleep on your side, all primates instinctively know to do that. Humans are the only primate that insists on sleeping on their back. Obviously if you throw up will asleep on your back you will die. 100% of people who go to a CPAP clinic get diagnosed with sleep apnea, just statistically this is obviously a scam.
These sleep clinics make money off you if they can diagnose you with a disorder that requires you to purchase a $2000 machine to "keep you alive". Of course, everyone who walks through the door needs what they have to sell.
That actually something I find interesting. I kind of assumed you were supposed to sleep on the back and felt bad about just not being able to. It's just so uncomfortable. Makes me happy to know there isn't anything wrong with me? I hope!
