Please consider adding snoring as a phenotype.

Preferred label: Snoring Synonyms: snore, snores, snoring symptoms

Definition: noisy breathing during sleep. Vibration of respiratory structures resulting in sound due to obstructed air movement during breathing while sleeping.

Suggested Parent term: sleep phenotype, breathing dysregulation

A term for Snoring already existed (HP:0025267). I have created a hybrid definition from your suggestion Deep, noisy breathing during sleep accompanied by hoarse or harsh sounds caused by the vibration of respiratory structures (especially the soft palate) resulting in sound due to obstructed air movement during breathing while sleeping. and added the synonyms. I also agree with 'breathing dysregulation' as a parent class.
