Not to mention that you have to potentially deal with schedule changes from 2 airlines which do not coordinate schedules. You are just asking for trouble.
Yeah there are definitely MANY easier, single-ticket options. This situation is unique because:

1. I will not have slept the night before, so I want lie-flat seats to recover.
2. I need to get home on Sunday night (as opposed to doing a red-eye)

Thank you all for the advice-- super helpful!
