Do you mean that people should have a fixed standing-height desk, and also a tall chair they can either sit in or not? That is actually my current solution (desk cobbled from adjustable shelving plus a 3' length of used countertop, tall chair from Walmart), but it took me a few read-throughs to get that as a possible interpretation of your comment.

Yes -- a tall desk and a tall chair to match it. Then you should have no need to adjust either unless you somehow become wheelchair-bound by an injury.

It also gives you the option of leaning halfway on/halfway off the stool with one foot on the floor (to avoid the awkward pelvic tilt that a lot of office chairs cause).
