Ie pilots and surgeons need regulated limits because they might kill people otherwise. Everybody else… if they choose to work 100h one week and 20 the next, let them decide. Pay for outcomes or time, not how they balance work and leisure.

It’s a ridiculous fiction anyway. For jobs driven by urgency, limits on duty cycle are really an indirect way to negotiate overtime opportunity. If you turn 40 into 32, that’s really 8 more hours overtime if work demand patterns don’t change.

You have an "individualistic" view of work. Nowadays, work is more and more collaborative, and teamwork requires coordination of hours. If everyone one works when they want, no one can rest properly because they'll have to be reachable. Coordinate on the rest days.
