Good point. It's worth keeping, though.

Is this needed? In all the examples, it means "sleepy-looking", "sleepy-sounding", etc. I think "sleepy" and "drowsy" are misleading.

Do we need 眠たそう too? It might be an idea, although it's probably a more direct derivation from 眠たい/ねむたい.

encountered with meaning of 'sleep-inducing' (music), so I guess drowsy captures that.
