Seems like he just wants everyone to have a 32 hour work week. Don't think he suggested actually accounting for it. More of a "if we going to be even more productive, let's work less"
I just can’t see how this is meant to work. You already could work less now if you wanted to, but you’ll always have less things and less money than those who chose to work more.
What if someone wants to work 60 hours to go on a big holiday or retire sooner?

How does it work today? The five day work week has not always been the norm and isn’t even the norm in all countries (e.g. Chinese 996 where you work from 9 AM to 9 PM 6 days a week).
They can, and sometimes do. Just like you could work a shorter week right now if you were ok with taking a pay cut.
Sentiment, not policy.
Until, of course, people start creating sentimental policies
