I agree that there are upsides and downsides to both. What tipped 4 days in my favor was having one free day to schedule annoying errands in that would have otherwise Swiss cheesed my schedule or taken up my evenings between work days - seeing the doctor/psychiatrist/vet, getting your oil changed, reviewing my monthly spending, etc.

There is a genuine trade off for me: I don’t make as much money, and concretely I’ve noticed that travel far less than my friends do, and unlike my friends I don’t own a car that I have to make long-term payments on. But I do get more focused work in during weekdays because of that, and time to explore my city during weekends, which scratches my traveling itch.
