Yep, I bet you're exactly right.

> Did you have problems with tiredness and concentrating?

Yes. Still do.

> Especially after only getting very little sleep for an extended time?

No

> Or did you already consume a lot of meat?

Yes. I mean, I probably eat less meat than the average American, but certainly plenty. Beef, too (high in creatine).

> As with all supplements, a good diet and lots of rest can make them little more than expensive pee.

Yep, this probably describes me. It's still pretty cheap, so I still do it (especially since my kids take creatine as well).

It's also super easy to test yourself.
