Does anyone know what is special about 30 instead of 40?
If 30 is better than 40, why not a 10 or 5 hour workweek?

Is there anything special about working 5 days a week ? Why not 7 days like we had back in the good ol days ?
And what about kids ? They use to work at 10 years old now they just sit on their asses until 18+...
Do we even need or want vacation days ? Think about the productivity !!!
There is commuting to and from work - but we can't optimise that one out ...
Remote work, building housing that's closer to the office, high-speed public transit, etc.
4 to 3 days, your productivity would go down 25%, and your vacation up 33% (3 to 4 days), so it's still interesting I guess but seems more balanced.
3 to 2 days, your productivity would go down 33%, but you only get 25% more off days (4 to 5 days).
My incredibly scientific analysis says that it would make sense down to 3 days a week, or 22.5 hours, but not so much after that.
It's special because that's not 40 hours. More free time.
