That's not how it works. You get the same amount of work done, but with less precision, a less good finish and more errors (and more accidents). Because you need more power to force the dull blade (or whatever) into/through the wood (or whatever).

Not necessarily. I work with a lot of legacy spaghetti code with many layers of unnecessary abstractions which requires navigating through the code a _lot_. I have set up my IDE and toolset to make it easy and fast to navigate through the mess. Whereas some of my coworkers haven’t and getting to the same result takes much longer. This is just one way that tools can actually speed up your work to get more done.
That changed after I spent far too many frustrating moments looking for a 12 mm wrench and losing my train of thought to backtrack my steps.
I hit a stride when I learned to organize my tools and keep them organized between tasks. It’s still obvious to me now because I have friends who don’t work this way, and I feel overwhelmed when I go into their garage or kitchen and all work surfaces are covered in tools, knives, unopened boxes, etc. I need to actively expand mental energy to ignore those things.
