Hustle culture of constantly needing to be "on and producing" is a great idea on paper, but doesn't work out for most people.
Over correcting by eliminating all forms of break and rest time won't help most people, but will stress quite a few into even worse states. People just need to be smart about applying their time when they are able to make use of it.
I agree that rest and quiet pleasures are needed but screen entertainment needs to burn. The current standards in the normies and the busy bodies have revolved around a screen so much that many forgot even how to boil an egg. The screens have just replaced people’s urges to create meaningful enjoyments in their life as all they need is behind the glow of a phone or the contrasting flashes of a big screen.

I'm going to still disagree, simply because there are days when you simply can't do anything else enjoyable. I'm talking the days when you are too exhausted to engage with really anything, but not tired enough to just go to bed. When even books you can't focus on and holding a conversation isn't going to go well.
People absolutely need a lot less in their life for sure, but it has its place as long as its kept reasonable and not supporting someone who hates you. I don't believe in trading one extreme for another.

100% true. I spent my 20s like that and burned out hard.
