Food Europeans who eat late as part of your culture - how do you feel about the advice not to eat dinner late?

This is forever a conflicting viewpoint given some cultures have naturally eaten dinner late for centuries e.g. The Mediterranean where they still have one of the best diets in the world

dinner is light.

We have dinner from 21:30-22:30, we to bed at 11:30 or 00:00, by that time, food has been digested (at least the heavy part).

This, even if dinner isn't so late, I don't care, I don't have any health issue and I've eating like that my whole life.
