@freemo @georgetakei @scott_guertin A few days of work-related sleep-deprivation (crunch time?) can very easily lead to death. Doing the same amount of work over the span of a week or two usually won't.

Karoshi is the acute type and most dramatic example, but damage to long-term life expectancy (or desirable life-expectancy, one can be stuck miserable for a while longer) happens at much lower thresholds.

I'm disagreeing with the implication that there's anything approaching equality in the power dynamics involved. What reprocity there is doesn't reach that far.

Your position seems to rely on what, to me, is a fairly absurd expectation one can find work that is non-straining, pleasant and not under abusive conditions.

In quite a few places, that would be a few hours. That adds up, especially with commute.
