Night feeding confusion

My baby is 15 weeks old and I’m confused about night feeding.

He has little and often formula fed and by about 10pm from 5am he’s had between 800ml and 1100ml, it varies.

He’s 50th centile and going up his curve nicely

The last 2 weeks he’s been sleeping through the night 10pm-5am but does stir a bit with his eyes shut.

When he stirs he usually goes back to sleep.

One night when he stirred I experimented and got him up and he did take a bottle.

Which leaves me feeling like if he stops stirring and I got back to sleep, I’m starving him or something!

But then I think I don’t want to be quick to disturb his sleep if he is.

In the day and I’m 30 seconds late with a bottle he cries, it’s unmistakable

He would do this in the night if he was actually hungry wouldn’t he?

If he's gaining weight, feeding well during the day and having plenty of wet and dirty nappies, I'd leave him, thank my lucky stars and hope it lasts!
