Bravo!

The burnout objection is laughable. Our consultants are required to bill 35 hours per week, which translates to an average of 7 hours of coding or less every day (there is billable work like meetings that is not writing production code).

We don't work weekends and we don't do overtime. Like, ever.

Only one form of burnout comes from long hours though. It can also come from repetitive tasks that require little thought, or in your particular case, being forced to approach problems in a rigid manner that isn't in your natural style.

That being said, you've made it clear that your entire team already fits your style, right down to having the same preferences in breath odour. I wonder though how much productivity is lost managing that aspect of things. :-)
