sleep is extremely important for growth and recovery and a lack of sleep will certainly hinder that

The key part is not the time - it's the rest and the quality. So if you feel rested and recover well then 5 is enough.

that type of rest is okay but you need to reach a step 3 or 4 deep sleep to hit that recovery phase of repair

You definitely need proper sleep to recover properly. I deal with occasional bouts of insomnia too, and it's not great.
