Does the 5x faster including shipping? Or just the work part?

IMO if you are not shipping out faster then the faster work gains are meaningless.

If you are shipping faster, you’re probably picking up more work and shipping everything too fast leading to burnout.

If you're not shipping faster, it's meaningless, and if you are, it's also bad?

If you're not shipping faster it's meaningless for the company.

And if you are, it's bad for the employee.

Is what the above comment actually said.
