I let my players get rest because there is zero difference between cramming encounters into resting periods and just having them happen during the day. Total encounters for the day is total encounters for the day, and each one generally takes less than an in game minute to play out since most last 5 or fewer rounds.

Plus not having it be a standard occurrence means having a rare encounter interrupting a rest will have a bigger psychological impact because it stands out.
