I'm not sure the analogy holds. Yep, some people have difficulty building boundaries between their work life and their non-work life, or between their coding life and their non-coding life. (Some people don't want to build those boundaries, and that's fine, but some people do want to build them and yet have a hard time doing so.) But just because they have a hard time doing something other people find easy doesn't mean we shouldn't make it even easier. Removing the graph or the streaks metric isn't "giving someone a fish". It is realizing that they have difficulty catching fish when they try, and giving them a net to make it easier. |

This is a request to destroy or completely disfigure, to the point of uselessness, a UI element that some people and teams legitimately find useful, all for the sake of protecting people (we don't know who or how many) who might plausibly harm themselves using it because of a lack of self control. Control that other people clearly demonstrate can be developed.
