that’s not at all what i said, i don’t see why you’re so angry

the long work weeks we have today is because more work can be done.

in medieval age, you had to sow, half a year later you had to reap, and in between maybe idk milk the cows, though that takes a few minutes a day, not much longer. so they couldn’t work more, because it simply wouldn’t have made sense. That’s why they didn’t work more, not because they didn’t need to.
