You're extrapolating an extreme hypothetical back to my baseline behavior in an uncharitable way.

You're also taking a single action to generalize to all my behavior -- for example, you're ignoring the possibility that I would both "forget" the out of hours idea, but present them with studies about how treating "knowledge workers" better leads to increased output or other similar "during work" activities that might influence their behavior.

You're also ignoring a slew of other concerns, ranging from my emotional health to my willingness to lock IP up with someone I perceive to be a negative actor in society.

All because you want to brag about how you're better than me and be "right".

Alright. Fair enough. Obviously I was not able to communicate my point in a way that was inoffensive. I apologise for that.
