What if 996 work hours do, on average across a large population, make workers more productive? When they burn out, they are easy to replace. Would this justify such a work schedule?

EDIT: This post is not in support of 996. Does anyone do Socratic dialogue in comment threads anymore?

At some point productivity just isn't worth it when it leaves you workers with like...one day a week to live. What a bleak and pointless existence.
Yes, that's what I was driving at.
