Not related to the parent's point. The 40 hour work week is not based on beliefs about productivity but is what organized labor was able to wrangle.


And what is measured is not what becomes law, hence why I don’t care. The fact is the laws are direct results of hard fought labor battles, not productivity data or theories.
