> If productivity wasn’t the only goal, jobs could get easier in many ways - devs might get longer time to work on a feature, warehouse workers might get less aggressive targets on how many boxes are shipped per day, employees might get more vacation or longer breaks or 4 day work weeks.

then the company would produce less, so they would have less product to sell, leading to a decrease in revenue and therefore a decrease in wages. I'm not sure why this would be a good idea.
