My guess is this won’t work in all cases, because norm enforcement is usually yes/no, and needs to be judged by people with little information. They can’t handle “you can do any 2 of these 5 things, but no more” or “you can do this but only if you implement it really skillfully”. So either everyone is allowed to impose 80 hour weeks, or no one can work 80 hour weeks, and I don’t like either of those options.
I think this might be wrong—for example, my understanding is that there are some kinds of jobs where it’s considered normal for people to work 80-hour weeks, and other kinds where it isn’t. Maybe the issue is that the “kind of job” norms can easily operate on lets you pick out things like “finance” but not “jobs that have already made one costly vulnerability bid”?
