Do you think meaningfully more work will get done in those countries with those extra 8 hours?

if you step outside our IT bubble absolutely. Manufacturing & Services can produce an awful lot of meaningful, measured value with an extra 8 hours a week.
Engineering isn't an assembly line job, though. If you're brain's tired, you may be on the clock, but you aren't going to be as productive as you would be if you were fresh.
I specifically meant in the world of IT or really any creative work.
